Zelkova are in ulmaceas family, and this kind of trees are caducifolios. I only want to give and advice.
If i am wrong, please tell me, but do it appropriately
Kind regards
Lol, seem to me that YOU cannot handle someone having another opinion.
You do not kow which species it is.
I am growing this exact species.
Yet you keep pushing your opinion and start making personal attacks.
Relax mate, and talk trees.

In spain (Madrid) we have ulmus in the streets, and they lost their leaves when the winter starts. Now, my zelkova don’t have any leaves.
Where do you have yours? Has it hold some leavea even in december? In spain we are now starting the winter.
Kind regards

Here we have a problem with this elms because they grow fast and invade the space. When the winter comes (now in Madrid) their leaves drop and the roads are full of leaves.
I think it is important to realize that different species behave differently. So U pumila and U siberiano are not per se a good indication of how U paviflora will respond to things.

Thx, but you are thinking about what maybe one day it may look like. Right now it is an ugly bush in a pot . Certainly nothing to do with bonsai yet.

There are several kinds of elms planted on the streets here, at least two different kinds, looking at the bark. I grabbed a handful of seeds off of one a couple of years ago and have dozens of the them now. The parent trees have large pieces of bark peeling off, with orange under bark, which I fell in love with.
So far this fall about half of them had green leaves, as of yesterday. We had our first frost last night so they may have gotten the hint that summer is over and it is time to drop the leaves. The last two years they have popped leaves out in the first week of January. I don't know what that means.

I see all the trees looking at their future, and yours looks good. It has many years left, but the starting material it's very good.
