This is one of the cuttings from a "cork-bark" elm I made years ago. I don't have many "broom style" trees, so I thought this one was a good candidate :

It still needs to develop a thicker trunk and a more dense, rounded canopy.

The pot is too deep, but that was a choice because it's getting very hot in the summer here. I like the colour though ;)

So far, it looks a bit like a (flat) street tree, but I like it. The "nebari" looks OK.
I'll repot it next spring and prune it on the right...
