you are blessed if you have American elms. I know your neighborhood and have seen some of the trees, but they are few, indeed. The photo is in Grant Park chicago. I've been working on restoring elms for over 20 years and now we have some great cultivars and hybrids that may be perfect. But, the true answer is in bioengineering the problem gene.

Hi, you read Prodigal Summer by Barbara Kingsolver?  It's a big part of the storyline.

Update: Oops!  In Prodigal Summer, it's the American Chestnut that's the issue.  Still a wonderful, wonderful novel.  One of my very favorite ever.
