Can we add English Elm (Ulmus procera)?

I wondered that, but the site I used as my list source has English Elm down as a naturalised introduction, having been introduced by the Romans, apparently.

 

[Harvestman]

By the way, if we get this list moistly completed, i will start one for naturalised non-native species...

I can't believe no-one has picked me up on this yet!!!

<mostly completed>

15/32 so far. Almost halfway.

Hard to believe no-one has claimed oak yet. Or elder.

After which it gets a bit more difficult.

And we are halfway there!

Well done everyone, and thanks for posting.

16 species to go. If we get 8 more, I'll start a new thread for naturalised species.

 

[fishfish]

@ Mr Fish, header reads, only one spoon per post.
Nice spoons peeps.

sorry ,would you like me to sort it out?

 

[robin wood]

Great thread, if anyone lives near me and wants to fill gaps I have a bit of spindle, lots of hornbeam various elms though not sure which, bird cherry and wild cherry all left over from SPOONFEST woodpile. Bushwacker is your lime small leaved, large or hybrid?

 

[Whittler Kev]

Must keep an eye on this and see if any locally not bagged

 

[Harvestman]

sorry ,would you like me to sort it out?

Don't worry about it.

 

[Hugo]

Probably no worries mate, leave it.
