I don’t know if it counts big. 30 cm trunk and all over 40 cm to the top (without pot). It marked “Zelkova pavifolia”, but I think it’s cause what Clicio said to avoiding “Ulmus” during importation.

Yes, same problem here, importing trees from abroad is forbidden, and the closest country is 2 days away (driving).

I was wrong! For me it’s much less problematic, but even like this I couldn’t find a single elm in close proximity ( with 3 days of search on IKEA, and various Malls where I hate to go). Today I had enough and driove down to the place where the BC engaged. “Hey Nickolas, could you give me a shty Chinese import S shaped elm in blue pot?” He thought I’ve gone crazy, but of course he could present me some..
But look! I have my tree in Akadama and it’s not half dead

Mh... If you close me in an empty room with two 30kg metal balls, one I’ll loose the other I’ll spoil within two hours.leatherback wrote: If you have half a green thumb, these are indistructable it seems. Mine is throwing new leaves!
Take the joke aside, I don’t think I’ll kill it, but that tree looks much healthier then what I can see on the mall shelves.
Imagine the funny moment when you smuggle one for Clicio...So..Clicio.. you are not participating? I would bring you one, except that .. wel.. It is illegal!
