The trunk is clean, straight and cylindrical, often bearing epicormic branches.
2.
Dominant trees are less likely to produce epicormic branches than those in the lower crown classes.
3.
The cultivar may be distinguished from other elms by the corky ridges which on mature trees occur only on the epicormic branches of the trunk.
4.
Botanists commonly differentiate between branches that originate from the initial extension growth and those that have developed epicormically from the growth of latent buds or knot that originates near to the stem's pith, those developing from latent buds will have a bud trace that originates near the stem's pith, and adventitious epicormic branches will exhibit neither of these internal features.
