Ulmus americana var. floridana, the Florida elm, is smaller than the type, and occurs naturally in north and central Florida south to Lake Okeechobee, growing to a maximum height of 22 m, with a slightly greater spread [1]

The tree is no less susceptible to Dutch elm disease, although the disease is less prevalent in Florida.
