Seedling
I Bought this Chinese Elm for 25 euro more than a year ago (late spring 2023). It had a lot of long branches and the leaves where only growing on the tips. The branches had no structure and it was in a bad soil.
After removing it from the pot i noticed it was severly root bound. I removed a lot of roots
I repotted it in a pond basket with pumice, akadama and some normal potting soil and let it grow freely for the rest of the year.
Late winter i started shaping the tree, removed a lot of branches and started wiring them.
This spring i repotted it (after some minor root pruning). The tree is exploding with new growth and buds right now. Will post more in the future
