Morphology
Ulmus + hollandica + vegetata
This is a botanical Latin name composed of a genus (Ulmus = elm) and epithets that likely signal origin or a trait (hollandica ≈ Dutch; vegetata ≈ vegetative/vigorous), so a learner who knows those constituent meanings would get the general idea of a Dutch/vigorous elm. However, the precise sense 'erect, vigorous hybrid ornamental elm' and cultivar/hybrid status are specialized and not fully predictable from the parts alone, making the overall meaning only partially derivable.
Etymology
Ulmus hollandica vegetata comes from Latin name parts: Ulmus means 'elm', hollandica means 'from Holland', and vegetata suggests 'fast-growing'. So the name simply tells you it is a strong, fast-growing Dutch elm often used in parks and gardens.
