Something that will resist compaction and stay moist without becoming water logged. The soil should drain easily. Chinese Elm can tolerate poor soil which is good news.
Some people like buying premixed soils and others prefer to make their own. You won't want to use typical potting or topsoil though. Akadama clay is popular, but can get kind of expensive. For one tree it may not be prohibitive.
You could try a liquid fertilizer at half the recommended dose as necessary.
