Tree Ulmus × hollandica 'Pioneer' [Pioneer Dutch Elm] Resistant to Dutch elm disease and phloem necrosis, but susceptible to the elm leaf beetle.
Tree Ulmus × 'Homestead' [Homestead Elm] Dutch elm and phloem necrosis resistant, but susceptible to the elm leaf beetle. 'Homestead' was formed from a cross between Ulmus minor, U. x hollandica, and U. pumila.

Tree InvasiveThis plant is considered invasive Ulmus pumila [Siberian Elm] Grows under almost any conditions, especially useful in dry sites. Resists Dutch elm disease. Leaf beetles can defoliate trees. Brittle branches and subsequently messy. Avoid planting this tree in the landscape, unless there is no other choice. Considered invasive in many areas.
Tree Indiana Native Ulmus rubra [Slippery Elm] The Slippery Elm has a vase-shaped form, similar to that of the American Elm (Ulmus americana), but with more ascending branchlets. This tree gained its common name from the moist, slippery, red inner bark chewed by Native Americans and pioneers to quench thirst. Not considered very ornamental for the landscape, due to its coarse texture, weedy tendencies, and susceptibility to Dutch Elm Disease (although not as severe as the American Elm).
Shrub Indiana Native Vaccinium angustifolium [Lowbush Blueberry] The Lowbush Blueberry requires acidic soils with a pH between 4.5 and 5.5. Iron chlorosis can be a problem in higher pH soils. Mulch around roots to maintain high organic matter. For higher blossom and berry output, grow in full sun. Berries are sweet and edible.
Shrub Vaccinium angustifolium 'Burgundy' [Burgundy Lowbush Blueberry] Known for their red fall color. This plant need a lot of moisture and good drainage. Blueberries are edible. Attracts birds and butterflies.
Shrub Indiana Native Viburnum acerifolium [Mapleleaf Viburnum] The Mapleleafe Viburnum is a shade and drought tolerant plant that is excellent for naturalizing. Tolerant to the poison excreted by Black Walnuts.
