. Black locust The black locust is a 40- to 60-ft × 35-ft tree that is native to forest edges and slopes in the Southern Appalachian and Ozark mountains of the United States (disjunct populations). At one time, this species was reported in 12 states, but

Light quantity and timing are often variable in urban and suburban landscapes ( Kjelgren, 1995 ). Buildings often cast shadows to the north (in the northern hemisphere) and east and west sides of buildings provide only morning or afternoon sun
How to manage nutrients and irrigation have been major concerns for the turfgrass and ornamental industry in recent decades, especially within densely populated urban areas ( Beard and Green, 1994 ; Carey et al., 2012 ; Hochmuth et al., 2012 ). It
both urban and forested landscapes ( Pinchot et al., 2017 ). Most elm species are diploid, with 2 n = 28 ( Santamour and Ware, 1997 ). Polyploids are known in only one elm species, U. americana , with diploid and tetraploid populations known in the
