If you’re looking for another great bonsai to add to your collection, check out the Chinese elm bonsai. The tree, categorized as the Ulmus Parvifolia, is a small evergreen tree that is quite hardy. It will survive just about anything, making it a great bonsai for a beginner or for someone who has a history of killing their plants. The Chinese elm’s twisted trunk and its exposed upper roots make it look like the bonsai is very, very old, even if it’s a relatively young tree. One of the really nice things about the Chinese elm is that it can be grown indoors or outdoors. It can exist in many different climates, so you can use it as decoration on your kitchen table, in your office, or put it outside on a patio table to act as a centerpiece during a summer cookout. No matter what you do with this little tree, it’s sure to look great anywhere.
