The Weeping Elm is a graceful ornamental elm known for its strongly pendulous, cascading branches. It typically grows forming a rounded crown with long, arching limbs that drape downward.

It has small, serrated green leaves through spring and summer, turning yellow‑gold in autumn. Its weeping habit makes it a striking feature tree for lawns, entrances, and park‑style plantings.

Hardy and adaptable, tolerates wind, cold, and a range of soils, performing well in most New Zealand conditions.
