One year on from collection an this elm was starting to wake up from winter with buds starting swell with a few pushing growth so i defoliated the tree an wired it up will make a grow box an re pot early this week i hope

Have a update on this tree not even a year of training complete on this tree an so far its going great the plan at this stage is to adjust branches but no trimming till December looking at getting some vigor into the tree an all so thicken the branches an leader its 110cm high right now but finished height be around 90cm

... As a fairly green member of this forum, all I can say is
That is brilliant!!!

Nice development in 1 year

Once it fills out it will be very nice

Looking good OC

Brilliant, can't believe how quickly it has come together!

Got time to wire this tree it had become very bushy so gave a light trim an placed branches a bit better im leaving the tops to thickn the leaders maybe as long as 2 more yrs while i wait ill clip an grow the rest with a bit of wiring here an there.

Last weekn my club had there club exhibition where the they had a raffle the guy who won the 2nd prize got a pot 70cm by 50cm which in the end was given to me so i took a good chinese elm to the next meeting for him to say thanks . So what to do with this pot decided to do a gentle repot of this big elm it maybe a bit small for it but can all ways let it grow bigger
