A TINY ELM

Post by Dave54 »

Hi guys,
thought I'd share a photo of a mini Chinese Elm before it loses its leaves.
Grown from a root cutting in about 2004 it is potted into a Pat K pot. Only measures about 5 inches tall. Trunk is a bit thick at the right hand side primary branch but this thickening often happens at the site of the original cut.
Just a fun little tree
Cheers
Dave
