Ulmus 'Louis van Houtte' has a distinctive vase-shaped structure, with a large, spreading canopy. In the spring season, Ulmus 'Louis van Houtte' produces large, yellow-green leaves that gradually mature to a yellow color, which they retain through the autumn season before falling. When planted in full sun, Ulmus 'Louis van Houtte' can achieve the best leaf coloring. It is an excellent choice for use as a specimen tree, owing to its ornamental value and unique structure. Ulmus 'Louis van Houtte' is deciduous and not native to New Zealand.

Seasonal Colour

Foliage

This is a general guide. When a plant flowers, fruits and colours up depends on the climate where you live and on the season. If timing matters, please reach out to our team.

Foliage Type

Evergreen plants retain foliage year-round but still shed and replace some leaves gradually as part of their normal growth cycle, rather than losing them all at once.

Deciduous plants shed all their leaves for part of the year (usually in autumn and winter), usually in response to colder temperatures or dry seasons, often producing seasonal colour before leaf drop.

Semi-evergreen plants sit between the two, keeping most of their foliage but losing some or all leaves briefly under cooler or drier conditions before quickly regrowing them.
