What a Spring we have had. John from Maryland recently visisted the Washington DC Mall looking for Cherries in Bloom for his wife. Well, they could not find the Cherries, but did bump into these large American Elms. John here pictured next to a nice specimen. Notice the diameter of the trunk in relationship to John!
Classical American Elm arching canopy creates wonderful shade for people and pets alike.
We thank John from Maryland for his photo of the American Elm and sorry he was not able to show his wife the cherry blossoms, but not all was lost. "I took her to see the Capitals play hockey afterwards" John tells making up for the missed Cherries!!
Thanks to John and others who have sent in thier stories and pictures!
