The elm cultivar Ulmus 'Rufa' [:rufous-coloured] was listed as U. campestris f. rufa by Georg Dieck, of Zöschen, Germany, without description in Haupt-catalog der Obst- und gehölzbaumschulen des ritterguts Zöschen bei Merseburg, Nachtrag I (1887),[1] though it had been in cultivation for some decades before this date.[2] It was considered "possibly Ulmus carpinifolia" (: Ulmus minor) by Green.[3]
