Beech or Elm, which to choose??

[Chopsie]

I may buy another tree, I've been sent these two images and I'm undecided
Could I have some opinions please?
I kinda knew which I'd probably go with but I'm interested in your opinions
Thank you
Mick
Btw I'm drawn towards the beech

A lot of trees can look the part when covered up with foliage. maybe you should ask for some naked pics, to get a better idea of whats going on structural wise. i personally prefer to buy deciduous when the leaves are off.

I totally agree with buying deciduous trees after the leafs have fallen

I'd be more interested in the elm, but it's up to you! the leaves are better in proportion IMO. As a side note, I almost always buy deciduous trees in the winter when they are without leaves. Much easier to pick out winners

as a side note: the most important thing with buying trees (for me) is to feel like I have to have it. If you are not totally in love with either but wouldn't mind having one of the two....then I'd pass. Wait for something mind blowing
