Found this volunteer in my side yard last year - I'm not sure if it's a Zelkova or Elm or maybe even a European hornbeam. I'm thinking to turn this into a sweet little informal shohin broom. I'll probably chop it back to the first or second node above the split in each of the three trunks.

Not a Zelkova IMO, not a hornbeam either, probably an elm of some sort.
