Hi all,

But I think the point is, that is a distinct
characteristic of some trees.

At this point you've understood, what I wanted to know, whether chinese elms
are of the one or the other type. I know, that I have still some time to
think about in which shape I want cut and wire it. But there are some rules
given by nature, which you can break easily (by the means of wire e.g.), but
you shouldn't imho. And I wont. Neither will you shape your bonsai like a
horse I think...

Bye for now
Wolle
