Hi,

Zone 8 really won't throw out anything an elm can't handle,I know this because zone 7 doesn't either really.For one that has had some root work or recently styled or something you can bring it indoors or protect in an unheated garage or structure untill the hard freeze is over.Also simply mulching the pot next to the south side of your house would work well.I would leave it outdoors full sun and only use mild protection for the really cold nights you mentioned.
