Ulmus parvifolia ‘Drake’ ~ Drake Chinese Elm grass Vitex agnus-castus BGDrake Chinese Elm is a deciduous tree with dense foliage, arching branches creating a rounded to weeping canopy, and a fluted exfoliating trunk. The narrow shiny dark green leaves with small teeth can turn shades of yellow, red, or purple in fall. Insignificant fall flowers give way to papery wing like seed pods that mature mid fall. Grows best with full sun and rich well drained soils. Can tolerate both dry and wet sites. Type: Tree Origins: China
