A caterpillar with a bright red head, long bristles sticking out in front ,while its back sports four white tufts of bristles, and short bristles sticking out the sides of the body. It is on the bark of a Chinese elm tree, the bark a patchwork of smooth teal color and raised brown ridges and pimples.

Saw the first fur tussock moth caterpillar of the year yesterday. This one is on the bark of a Chinese elm tree, making for a cool color photo. #photography #photo #tussockmoth #caterpillar #moths #insect #nature #wildlife #lepidoptera #furtussockmoth #naturephotograph #chineseelm #chineseelmtree

This little Chinese elm isn’t an expensive tree, but it was a little stump when I got it, and I’ve grown every branch. 😀

A chinese elm with a strong S-curve in the trunk. It's in a pond basket. It has long shoots with dark-green leaves.

The same chinese elm from the first picture, pruned aggressively.

Lots of very short cuttings from the chinese elm tree in a white tray with a red rim.

Spring pruning my #ChineseElm #bonsai - I hope it wasn't too much or too early, but it looked healthy, so I think it can take it.
Trying to root some of the cuttings in a tray...

A chinese elm bonsai in a pond basket on a table. In the background, there is a black bench.

The same bonsai from the first picture, but with less green twigs. To the right, there are scissors and the freshly cut twigs. Left of the tree, there is a coffee mug.

The #ChineseElm #bonsai grows *wild* this year. Today I removed all the shoots that I'll definitely not need in the next design phase. If everything works out like planned, the tree should have more energy for the remaining shoots and grow them even more vigorously.
