Meet Elmer! Got this Chinese Elm Bonsai from a local bonsai master. Any advice? Had about half leaf drop due to my overwatering…

    hi elmer ! i have a chinese elm bonsai as well and i learned that they drop a large quantity of leaves when they first move in. after that, as long as youre watering on schedule and giving it enough light itll bounce back with new leaves ! 🤗 oh and also not moving it around really, they like to stay in the same spot 😅

      Thank you for that…I’ll be posting his progress soon! I’m so impressed by the spring growing starting!

      I will basically rotate Elmer in the same spot. Letting the light hit different angles…he is responding nicely!
