Update on this beautiful elm? I have just started some this year from small seedlings I've found under massive trees in my city! Very interested in this species since zelkova and Chinese elm aren't hardy in my zone
Yes will soon post an update!
More inspiring work Sergio! What a transformation even in the short period of time shown. I have several American elm and am enjoying them so far, and discovered a new collecting location for these this fall. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you. I have become very fond of elms in general. Next spring I think I am going to tilt the tree just slightly even more to emphasize the overall lean to the right while compressing the left side. Almost as if unseen forces are pushing the tree to grow towards one side.
Aside from more "classical" forms, I want to keep exploring other ways to express deciduous trees in nature. I believe there is a tremendous wealth of forms and growth habits that have yet to be expressed via the art of bonsai.
Wish you much success in your elm endeavors!
