Green Leaf Yellow leafed Chinese Elm

Hi Everyone... :-)

I have a Chinese Elm which has a problem......? It's leafs are turning yellow, and are falling off the branches when I tuch them....! The tree is generating new shots, and leaflets. In addition it's branches are growing rapidly...!

- During the winter, the Elm did not shed its leafs, so is this a normal process of changing the leafs...? And has it mixed-up the seasons....? or is it something else...?
-Could it be lack of Nitrogene or some other elements...?
-Or has it been getting too much water....? I have been watering it no more than every 2 nd day...!
- I have been giving it fertilizer every 2 weeks...(POKON..Bonsai fertilizer)

I have attatched 3 pictures: One of the tree, one of the crown (showing some yellow leafs) and one comparison between a normal leaf and a yellow one.

I'm looking forward to any suggestions...!
