if its hardy, just leave it in a sheltered position outside. I have a few chinese elms, and had quite a small chinese elm a few years ago. This tree was only 5inches tall but survived the harshest of british winters with no trouble. All i did way placed all my trees together on a large rack, with the post close together and put them next the the house to shelter them.

Which USDA zone are you in? as that would be helpful.
