Siberian front fence rescue (burn pile)

Siberian Elm

This is the first collected Siberian Elm, the one that got me thinking about this invasive as potential, since it was collected as a weed along my fence line.
On the left side of the image you can just about make out the original cut made by the previous tenant.  Last summer, I cut back the branches branches and got thinking about digging it out.  It kind of has a windswept feel, although not best seen in this image.
RIP: this tree did not recover after the winter of 2018-19
