It's a lovely variety and perfect for the smallest trees. Your mame are very special and I can see they bring you much joy.
I just hope that my little one grows into something special in time. I will be taking cuttings from it.
Hello Jarrod, After we had these discussions, and we thought we had it settled I was still some what confused.
So when we had Hirotoshi Saitoh here in September, I took a couple of my minis to see what he would say design wise.
Among them was a couple( as they are small you can do more) of the Geyaki/ Keyaki elms. It turns out that the Japanese understanding of the Letters G and K are very much the same as in pronunciation.
So in fact it can be both, it depends on your translator/translation.
I hope this helps to somewhat in clearing up the point. An interesting side note was when Bill Valavanis visited us, he said they were japanese corky bark elms.
Which would make them Ulmus davidiana. Which was the Ulmus that the late Ron Anderson of Melbourne, introduced to the eastern seaboard.
Cheers Pup
