Distribution
Eastern to Midwest United States
Availability

Appearance
Heartwood is light to medium reddish brown. Paler sapwood is usually well defined.
Workability
Can be a challenge to work because of interlocked grain, especially on quartersawn surfaces. Planing can cause tearout and/or fuzzy surfaces. Poor dimensional stability. Glues, stains, and finishes well. Responds well to steam bending, and holds nails and screws well.
Uses
Boxes, baskets, furniture, hockey sticks, veneer, wood pulp, and papermaking.
Additional Comments
American Elm is especially susceptible to Dutch elm disease, and was ravaged by the fungal disease in the second half of the twentieth century. Consequently, large and mature American Elms are uncommon.
