The Chinese elm is a very popular choice of bonsai recommended for beginners as it is a strong tree that reacts well to pruning. If you want to practice clip-and-grow pruning look no further. Elms grows fast making it easy to build up a dense foliage mass by pruning alone within a few years. New shoots on an Elm will extend in any direction with alternating leaves getting bigger as the shoot gets longer. With them being quite an adaptable species, they are more tolerant to imperfect growing conditions. Fortunately, due to their natural vigour they are very good at recovering from accidental neglect too. Probably one of the best reasons why it is recommenced to beginners. Chinese Elm is a deciduous - sometimes semi-deciduous tree depending on the location. The graceful branches have clusters of leaves that emerge as green in the Spring and change to shades of golden during Autumn. Sometimes their leaves turn shades of red and purple too!

Caring for your elm bonsai

Elms love water. Water until water comes out of the drainage holes in the bottom. During the growth season, Spring – Summer, a lot of the shaping can be done with trimming alone. General maintenance pruning is to probably trim back to 1-3 leaves on each new shoot. Woody branches and trunks are reasonable flexible and can be wired into position if necessary.

Good to know: If something upsets an Elm they can often drop their leaves in a short period of time. Although this may be alarming for the inexperienced, with correct care and attention elms will almost always leaf back within a few weeks.

Sun exposure

The Chinese elm thrives in either full sun and/or partial shade. It can be kept outdoors as well as indoors in a sunny location. They are very tolerant of a wide variety of temperatures and climates. They can be grown year-round in a light warm indoor location where they will stay in leaf and growing all year. Or they can also be grown outside where they will go dormant in Winter.


Fertilizing

Elm bonsai enjoy organic feed. Moderate application of once a month is all that's necessary to keep elm bonsai growing strong.

Highly recommend
Color: Black Green, Size: 8 Inch
I was skeptical that it would hold up to our aggressive chewer puppy (staffyX) - especially during teething. But it has survived past teething into adult chompers and is still fantastic! Its his favorite outside toy, especially the tags make it fun (and those have been holding up well too). If/when it fails, I'll buy another one.

great design, poor overall quality
Color: Black Green, Size: 8 Inch
My dog loves these balls. The "tags" are a great design. The problem I have is the quality as they aren't tough enough. He goes through them pretty quickly tearing off the tags and puncturing the ball. He doesn't get that these actually cost money! Each one also comes with a small pump, which I guess is great for a one time buy?, but man, if you don't own a pump just buy one and keep one. I have no use for several of these cheap pumps. How about offering the pump as an add-on for a dollar or two?

Ummmm🙄 not indestructible!
Color: Yellow Green, Size: 6 Inch, Color: Yellow Green, Size: 6 Inch
I have a Aussie doodle ( 1 1/2 yr old) so I decided to get her this one for Christmas and she loved it (she plays soccer with my grandkids-so I thought it would be a perfect gift and the colors are so cool green and yellow) however ..if your dog is like mine, she busted it within two days first tried chewing off the handles so I decided to cut the rest of them off-then proceeded to tear one of the pentagons entirely off and finally completely busted it… which made her very happy, but I was very sad!! If your dog is not a chewer and does not stop until she tears it apart, especially if it has some kind of noise maker which this does not-it’s a great ball and really well made! She loved it from the minute she got it played with it-wouldn’t let us take it away from her! It is made and looks like a real soccer ball. So I will have to keep searching for an indestructible soccer ball🙄😁

My dog loves this.
Color: Black Green, Size: 6 Inch, Color: Black Green, Size: 6 Inch
I have a large Cane Corso who could obviously shred this but, she loves it. This ball is holding up really well. We use it for outside play and she loves batting it around and swinging it from the loops.
