snowblind,

Definitely one of the better Chinese Elms we've seen here, thanks for posting it. What other species are you interested in?

wow erm I'm intrested in like all of them but I think my fav has got to be the fig due to its really narly trunk the really heavy roots you can get make them look so nice and you can really dress the pots nicely aswell

Wow,
That is a beautiful tree, I like it a lot. The branch placement is superb, the person you recieved this from obviously knew what he was doing, kudos to having an excellent tree. :D

the guy I got the tree from is a old hand at bonsai and this was one of his first trees. he let me have it due to the fact I bugged him for years XD allso I had had a lot of other trees from him in the past . the placement of the branches ive changed alittle dude to the fact I wonted to put my stamp on the tree and wow has it gone well but its a elm and they tend to go well =D

thank you for the comments btw you make me blush :oops:
