Ash,

Thank you for your kind words encouragement! Are the yellow leaves typical for new growth in the elm species? and should they become greener with time?

And Cathie, yes the bag has holes in the bottom to allow for proper drainage. the bag however does become very hot during the day, and has also been sitting directly on the paved area. the soil does become warmer inside the bag compared to the soil within pots. thanks for the idea of a tile! i will use something along those lines for tomorrow and i think i might sit the bag off of the ground. are there any other ways of reflecting heat away from a black bag/pot??

thanks for the replys
