Description
This informal upright bonsai features a gracefully curved trunk with developing ramification. Its small, light green leaves suggest it is either a Chinese Elm or a similar deciduous species, possibly captured in early spring. The tree is presented in a dark rectangular training pot, resting within a blue ceramic water tray on a stone pedestal.
