ZELKOVA (JAPANESE ELM) - Strong growing deciduous tree with long erect branches growing from a short straight trunk. In winter the elongated, serrated edged leaves turn from deep green to crimson/bronze, orange/yellow.

STYLE: Suitable for all styles but especially suited to broom and group styles (especially if trunks are not straight enough for broom).

WARNING : Keep the structure light and airy as congestion of fine twigs can cause dieback - sometimes of the whole branch.
