Hey All,
Excited to find this resource. Though I've been a gardener for a long time bonsai is a relatively new arc for me.
I have a ~15 year old Chinese elm. I had been keeping it outside since I got it a couple months ago. However, due to life at large I have relocated to a city. I sold some of my trees and have others at a friends house that can't come inside. I have the elm with me but due to my transition timing it has started to move into dormancy i.e. Fall color and minor leaf drop. My question is can I pull it out of dormancy back into green/veg mode or would I be better off winterizing it at a friends house with my other dedicated outdoor trees? Would forcing it back to green tax the roots too much and result on longer term care issues?
