Zelkova Trees - 3 species

These are really neat, pretty trees that resemble Elms, but have smaller leaves. They have beautiful, smooth gray bark. They go dormant in winter, but I grow most of my plants indoors, even these. They are VERY cold hardy, though, and can also be grown as Bonsai.
Just thought I'd offer something different.
I am offering young saplings 2-4 years old.
I have Z. japonica, serrata, and sinica. They all look about the same.
What do you have ?

Hi I have dozens of small boxwood trees . i cant resist rooting the cuttings I trim from my boxwood bonsais .I only have 2 or 3 specimens of the hundreds of trees I am trying to keep in containers so they are not up for trade but what I have is on my lists . Please check them out. Maybe we can trade thanks Ric

That's really neat! I have a bunch of boxwoods myself.
What type are your Persimmon, Hackberry, and Sweetgums? How big?
I'm more into the tropical stuff, however.
Thanks!

the persimmons are american I believe . anyway there is a male and a female on the streets of fairfield IA and the fruit is small . The sweet gum and the hackberrry are also from trees in my area so I have noid for them. My saplings of persimmon and sweet gumm are just a year old . The hack berries grow all around my house and in the driveway and are stunted by shade and about 1 to 2 ft tall

I would love to trade for 2-3 or your zelkova seedlings. Please look at my trade list and see if anything interests you.

Thanks

Thank you both for your info, and lists - I think I will keep looking for some more tropicals, if anyone else wants to jump in.
Best to you!
