In this paper caucasian elm, recorded in New Belgrade, has been specially analysed. The above mentioned exemplars havling characteristic silhouette and bizzare form (shape) and very decorative trunk and branches with bark that flakes in yellow and green shades of colour and leaves coarsely toothed on margins, have shown very good adaptibility, high diameter and height increment, vitality and decorativness as well as the low temperature resistance. Thanking to these qualities this species can be recommended for the areation of effective compositions on green areas of Belgrade having many different characteristics and usage.
