    Careful Elm soaks up water like softwood, and it might be red elm, sort of looks like it as far as I can tell.

    I wish it was red elm, but pretty sure it's Siberian. Up on pallets, 8" or so from the fence, 12" between first 2 rows so I would think it will dry with no problems.

    I've heard that elm dries good just like the other elms. Good luck.
