The Giant huntsman spider is huge, but not deadly to humans. Biggest in the world, the Giant Huntsman Spider was just recently discovered in 2001 in a Cave in Laos.
Because of reduced competition from other trees, it tends to thrive in barren soil containing too much sand, gravel, or clay. Growth and development of young trees is rapid, and their longevity can extend to 50-100 years. Siberian Elm is resistant to Dutch Elm disease, which is often fatal to other elms. It is prone to storm damage from wind, snow, and ice (especially the latter), causing breakage of branches and twigs that can litter the ground underneath the tree.
Siberian elm is native to East Asia, including China, eastern Siberia, and Turkestan. It was once planted as an alternative to American elm because of its resistance to Dutch elm disease. But it is plagued by elm leaf beetles, making the tree unattractive through most of the summer. Also, its weak wood breaks easily in storms or under the weight of ice, and its large limbs are subject to splitting from the crotches of older trees. If that is not enough, it is also a prolific (weedy) seeder.
