The Field Elm cultivar Ulmus minor 'Laciniata' was listed by Wesmael [1] in Bulletin de la Fédération des sociétés d'horticulture de Belgique 1862: 390 1863 as Ulmus campestris var. nuda subvar. microphylla laciniata Hort. Vilv..

Description

The tree was described as having laciniate leaves 3–5 cm long.[1]
