Chinese Elm next steps? was created by sheridanwd

Posted 4 years 7 months ago #60024
Hi,

I have been caring for this Chinese Elm for around a year and have recently repotted into a larger, deeper pot to encourage growth. However, I am unsure as to what to do next? Should I prune it? And, if so, how far back does it need to be pruned?

Thanks,
Sheridan

It looks a bit weak to me.

Were the branches upright before?

It is impossible to see the trunk and branch structure from the picture, which make something dificult, impossible to do: It is not possible to really advice you anything. Except.. Ensure it is healthy and growing strong before you do any more work.

I have repotted the Elm into a proper pot with some '名媛直播 Focus Mix' soil. I've also pruned all downwards growing shoots.

Here are some more pictures. Let me know what you think?
