Zelkova serrata 'Schmidtlow'
Choose Wireless® Zelkova when you need a broad shade tree that stays lower than many canopy trees; the tradeoff is width, so it needs room to spread.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A- | Its wide vase shape, peeling bark, and red fall color give it strong presence without becoming a towering shade tree. |
| Growth Rate | B | It grows at a steady moderate pace, so it is not instant shade but also not painfully slow. |
| Maintenance | B+ | It is generally trouble-free, though young trees should be trained for good branch structure. |
| Deer Resistance | C | Young trees like this can be browsed or rubbed by deer, so protect it while it establishes where pressure is heavy. |
| Small Space Fit | C | It can work near overhead wires, but its broad canopy makes it a poor fit for narrow spaces. |
| Screening Value | D | As a deciduous shade tree, it gives canopy cover but not dependable privacy. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Wireless® Zelkova for wide lawn or street-side spots where customers want shade but need to be careful around overhead lines.
| Mature Height | 24 ft |
|---|---|
| Mature Width | 36 ft |
| Hardiness Zones | 5a-8a |
| Spacing | 35 ft |
| Sun | full sun |
| Moisture | dry to moist |
| Growth Habit | Upright, narrow, upright |
Yes, if the planting area is wide enough for the canopy to spread.
It can, especially if you want red fall color without planting another maple.
Not well; use an evergreen or denser branching plant for privacy.

The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
Good size but tree seemed to be root bound. Tree budding late August.

Very nice
Guys installed for me as well
Great job
Huge selection and fast delivery. All plants arrived in great condition.
Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
Progrowers was a great company to purchase from. Very fast delivery to my house. The tree seems to be in great condition and is so far doing really well!
