Tree #217 is a twelve-year-old Chinese Elm with a tall, tightly coiled trunk — thick at the base and full of movement the whole way up — carrying a compact, airy crown high above the pot. It stands about 15 inches tall in a round 8″ plastic training pot, ready for a ceramic pot of your choosing or happy to keep developing as-is.

The tree in these photos is the exact tree you’ll receive, hand-raised at our Southern California nursery.
