Chinese Elm
Ulmus Parviflora
Field Elm (Ulmus Holandica) by TJ Klein. Age: 15 years, height 1’12” / 60 cm
The Ulmus Parvifolia (Chinese Elm Bonsai) grows a fine network of twigs
and branches, making it perfect for Bonsai purposes. The Elm is often
confused with Zelkova species, but when comparing both leaves the
difference is noticeable. The Chinese Elm is the most commonly used
Elm species, although its other varieties are also suitable for growing
Bonsai trees.
