Many people forget to do with when root working elms. I forgot when removing a number from the ground. Many nice little tree's can be made and its so simple.

I removed a big C.Elm about 15 years ago and it took 5 years to eradicate the roots with neat roundup . The roots on a 100mm trunk will travel 5m under mulch seeking moisture , a lot of root cutting there .Cheers

Yeah I have a mate who ground grew elms, he cant get rid of them.

La, La, La, .... (Not listening) *as she guiltily looks at the hundred or so chinese elms planted in the back yard.....*

Heh heh heh , an endless supply of noxious weed root cutting

LOL. they almost are a weed. i dug a big c.elm out of my yardlast year and some of the inch thick roots were left sticking out of the ground. they have grown to about 4 foot now
