shohin chinese elm broom autumn colour

Post by Matthew »

Hey guys been abit quite posting lately. late winter ill have heaps of threads as alot of trident work ie grafting etc will be done. Cold and wet here atm. 2 jumpers on and im still cold. thought id post a pic or 2 of my little chinese elm showing some splender. jamie had a sneek peek but i think its deepen alittle since them. its not a nice tree yet but a few seasons and ill think il have something. first year in a bonsai pot by pat kennady this guy stands 6 inches tall. I just love its colour and its about the last of my trees to hold its colour. Its also the only chinese elm i have showing this colour too?

hope you enjoy :)

Excellent Noah, you scored the red foliage. They come in a choice of colours the main one being yellow and some orangy yellow and, like yours, reddy bronze. It will develop into a nice little tree.
