Chinese Elm Ground Layer
BEND ME TWIST ME



THE JOURNEY OF 200 DESERT ASH
12/09/07
Chinese Elm Ground Layer

2 years ago I purchased this little elm with the ugly burl on its trunk to grow out and eventually hollow out the burl. Change of plans now kept it shohin size.


I particularly liked what was going on above the burl and if I can achieve a ground layer with enough angle, across the middle of the burl, to slant the tree and get immediate basal flare, I will have a couple of nice options in the not too distant future. I think cascade will be the order.



So out came the dremel with a fine bit and I channelled around the burl. I worked the roots as I have the previous trees and buried it up over the burl using sandy mixture around the burl.





Thanks to all who checked out this post and stay tuned for the next episode of
BEND ME TWIST ME
