Question
Here is tree sapling volunteering in my back yard (Concord, MA). It seems to be some kind of elm. I believe I see the same tree popping all over roadsides in Concord. Is there a way to tell what species it is?
Answer
Dear llsrvd, your plant is a species of Ulmus (elm). It is likely to be Ulmus americana (American elm), but mature foliage would be needed (or images of the fruits) to confirm this with confidence. Best wishes.
