Ulmus 'Arno'
''Ulmus'' 'Arno' is an Italian hybrid cultivar derived from a crossing of 'Plantyn' (female parent) with the Siberian Elm '' Ulmus pumila'' clone S.2. It was raised by the Istituto per la Protezione delle Piante (IPP) in Florence, and released in 2007. However, 'Arno' was not a commercial success; propagation had ceased by 2010, and it is no longer patent protected. 'Arno' was introduced to the UK in 2007 by Hampshire & Isle of Wight Branch, ''Butterfly Conservation'', as part of an assessment of DED-resistant cultivars as potential hosts of the endangered White-letter Hairstreak.Brookes, A. H. (2020). ''Great Fontley Elm Trial - 2020 Report.'' Butterfly Conservation, Lulworth, UK. ''. Description 'Arno' is of erect habit with upward main branches forming an oval to round crown, but can sucker freely from its roots. In Italy the tree is remarkably fast-growing, though not as quick as its contemporary 'Fiorente'. The trunk is straight, and usually forks at a height of 3 ...

Ulmus 'Plantyn'
''Ulmus'' 'Plantyn' (Anglicized form of 'Plantijn') was one of three Dutch hybrid elms released by the Dorschkamp Research Institute for Forestry & Landscape Planning, Wageningen, in 1973. Derived from a crossing of the Dutch hybrids '202' (''U.'' 'Exoniensis' × ''U. wallichiana'') and '302' (''U. minor'' '1' × ''U. minor'' '28'), it was to prove of great significance in later developments.Heybroek, H. M. (1976). ''Nederlands Bosbouw Tijdschrift'' 48: 117–23, 1976. A selfed seedling was to become the first Dutch clone to prove effectively immune to disease, released in 1989 as 'Columella'. 'Plantyn' was also destined to be the female parent of released in 2002.. In Italy, 'Plantyn' was used again as female parent in hybridizations with the Siberian Elm ''Ulmus pumila'' by the Istituto per la Protezione delle Piante (IPP), to create three new cultivars better adapted to the Mediterranean climate (see Hybrid cultivars).

'Lobel' was cloned in 1962 and released for sale in 1973. Description 'Lobel' is a fastigiate, small-crowned, tree not unlike the pyramidal Hornbeam ''Carpinus betulus'' 'Fastigiata'.
