Hi All,

Based on the post I made in the Dutch bonsaiEmpire forum, a challenge was started to try and see where we can take ulmus mallsai in a couple of years. You feel like doing something like that here too? Just for fun and laughts.

- Get an ulmus mallsai from a local hardwarestor or ikea or..
- Spend the next 3 (?) years working the tree to the best of your ability
- Share an update at least once a year, but nice to have one more often
- At the end we see which tree came the furthest from the original tree

I propose that we start this now, and take 3 months for people to start a thread.
Share your participation in the current thread if you are in.
Ast the end of summer we do an update sharing the first steps taken & results
