Loam and Elm Wood

I propose a new wood type to be added to Minecraft: Elm. The wood would look similar to birch, except have a slightly pinkish hue. It would be found in forests and a new biome called Loam Valley, growing in a new block called loam. Loam would be found naturally in the Loam Valley biome, and could be crafted out of 3 sand, 3 mud, and 3 clay. Elm saplings could grow in dirt or loam, but grow significantly faster in loam.
