Native to East Asia, Chinese Elm Bonsai Trees (Ulmus parvifolia), also known as Lacebark Elm Trees, are very popular bonsai trees for beginners. These lovely decidious trees can grow up to 65 feet tall in their native habitat, but have been cultivated in miniature form as Bonsai for generations. As the Chinese Elm is slow-growing and tolerant, this bonsai species allows beginners plenty of time and forgiveness to grow accustomed to bonsai care, making it one of the most loved and most undemanding of bonsai plant varieties. This outdoor bonsai tree will thrive outdoors in temperatures as low as 20 degrees F, with protection. The Chinese Elm bonsai features a beautiful, distinctive dark gray to reddish brown bark that will fissure and appear corky when mature. It has a lovely branching shape with delicate, oval-shaped toothed leavesshowcasing a fresh green color and a delightfully tiny leaf. It has a highly predictable growth pattern, great for those learning how to train bonsai. Each elm bonsai tree has been meticulously trained by our partner nursery in China, and has been nurtured and shaped in our Mississippi nursery.
