Based on the pictures thus far, I'd say we're definitely putting the nut in bonsai nut!

You know! This thread is like the island of misfit nutters!
Or just Alcatraz!

We should have another entry soon!
I hope no one confuses this and the PP contest though!

I was just informed by my wife that a selfie is a picture one takes of themself ? lol I thought Ulmus selfie meant the thing on the pot was called a selfie and it was being used on an Elm.

Can confirm.

I've heard of people taking selfies, and even monkeys taking selfies, and I know an alumnus can take a selfie, but an ulmus? Gotta see that to believe it.

A chop back for spring. Tree and me!

This is another Ulmus with crazy roots! Kind of lame but unposted.

Mudman addicted to Ulmus.

Top that!

Wow! The old snotty elm. Close relative to the slippery elm.
Going to need some time to think about how to top that without resorting to nudity.

Maybe it's made out of some of his friendly neighborhood squirrels.
And what he wears when he goes into combat with them. And a pellet gun. Davey Crockett style!
And I imagine it looks great with pink panties.
