This is a highly contagious disease to which most elms succumb within a year of infection. There is no known cure.\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An American elm&#8217;s lifespan is typically 175 to 200 years. The two trees that were removed were approximately 125 years old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The area will be leveled and restored. The contractor, General Tree, is donating two <a href=\"https:\/\/landscapeplants.oregonstate.edu\/plants\/ulmus-frontier\">&#8220;Frontier&#8221; elm trees<\/a> as replacements, one of which will most likely go in the same space (the area is not big enough for two full-sized elms and the pine tree). The other will be planted in a suitable location on campus. Crews will hold off on planting the new trees until late September or early October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new Ulmus Americana &#8220;Frontier&#8221; is a slightly smaller tree that has red leaves in the spring that transition to yellow-green during summer. It is resistant to Dutch Elm Disease and tolerant of urban conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our campus reaps the benefits of trees planted generations ago. Plant services will continue to care for them, but unfortunately, at some point, all trees become a hazard and need to be removed. It will then be up to us to replant and to care for the trees, for the enjoyment of the class of 2145.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week, crews removed two elm trees in front of the Edwards-Holman Science Center after they were diagnosed with Dutch Elm Disease.
