The Japanese Elm’s leaves are simple and ovate to oblong-ovate with serrated margins, rough on top and smooth on the underside. They are dark green throughout the summer, changing to yellow, orange, red and purple in autumn.
The bark is grey and smooth, and the young shoots are reddish at first. The straight trunk and smooth bark of the Zelkova are appealing characteristics, maturing to grey in colour.
