One-Of-A-Kind Chinese Elm (Tropical)
This Chinese Elm is ready for Styling. It's starting to fill out nicely. Chinese Elm is one of the most popular bonsai trees, especially among beginners. This Chinese elm has been grown as a tropical and is maintained above 65 degrees in the winter months. You can acclimate the tree to become deciduous and have it go dormant if you'd like. These lovely semi-evergreen trees can grow up to 65 feet tall in their native habitat, but have been cultivated in miniature form for Bonsai for generations.
It is an ideal choice for those just starting out because it is slow-growing and tolerant, the Chinese Elm allows beginners plenty of time and forgiveness to grow accustomed to bonsai care making it one of the most loved and most undemanding of miniature trees. It's important to note that Chinese Elm can defoliate themselves after shipping. That's normal and the foliage grows back within a couple weeks.
This strong looking Elm has branches in all the right places. Originally imported from China, this elm was recently repotted at our Nursery in Florida and the roots are now established and the tree is ready to ship.
Tree Features: The tree measures approximately 19" tall with a spread between 14". It's in a beautiful 12" Ceramic Pot.
