[SOLD] Rare opportunity to buy a (QV) English elm

Post by Gerard »

QV asked if I would post a picture for him of this beautiful English elm which is on the market.
Nobody in Australia does English elms better.
I forgot to measure but my guess is 950mm tall. (I will confirm later)

If you wish to know more you can PM me.
I am able to pick up the tree if a serious buyer wants to view it in Preston.
Asking price is $2700 (or make an offer)

This tree has been moved to one of the local nurseries, with instructions to sell.
I know that he will lower his price by a few hundred dollars, if you are interested make an offer before it is gone!

English elm are very tough so yes I would say easy to keep in a temperate climate at least
It's too bad your in such a hurry cause the stories I could tell you, Bushels and baskets of stories, hole crates full of stories. But if you can spare a moment I will tell you one story.

If you have not noticed somebody is selling the tree for him so you would imagine he wishes to remain anonymous.Lets keep it that way.

I agree it's a fantastic buy for anyone who has the money. I'd be jumping at it to of I didn't have other commitments as well.
