Ulmus parvifolia ‘Hokkaido’ – Dwarf Chinese Elm

Ulmus parvifolia ‘Hokkaido’ is a true miniature tree, prized for its exceptionally small leaves, tiny twigs, and naturally compact form. Its dense branching and sturdy little trunk give it the look of age and character, making it a favorite for bonsai, railroad gardens, and other miniature landscapes.

As it matures, this dwarf elm develops rugged, corky bark that enhances its timeless appeal. Best grown in full to partial sun with moist, well-drained soil, ‘Hokkaido’ requires careful attention—avoid overwatering in winter and protect from drying out or scorching in summer heat. A collector’s gem, this rare cultivar brings texture, charm, and a sense of maturity in a truly petite package.

Many perennials and bonsai plants will have a ‘winter look’ that differs from how they look when actively growing.  Colder temperatures and short days alter the appearance of these plants as they go thru seasonal changes.  Some plants require this reboot to bloom and/or perform at their best during the growing season.  Plants may remain semi-dormant until early spring.  Rest assured that these cosmetic changes do not adversely affect the health of your plant. 

Bonsai Basic Care: Hard

Watering: Bonsais require careful watering. The frequency depends on the species and the climate, but generally, the soil should be kept slightly moist. Check the soil daily, and water thoroughly when the top layer feels dry.

Light: Most bonsai trees prefer bright, indirect light. A few hours of direct sunlight early in the morning or late in the afternoon is beneficial, but a direct midday sun can be harmful, especially in hotter climates.

Soil/Drainage: To prevent water retention and root rot, use a well-draining bonsai-specific soil mix.

Temperature/Humidity: Depending on the species, bonsai trees can be kept indoors or outdoors. Indoor bonsais generally prefer temperatures between 60-75°F and benefit from increased humidity, which can be achieved through daily misting or humidity trays.

Feeding: Fertilize your bonsai regularly during the growing season. Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every few weeks or as recommended for the specific type of tree.

Pruning/Training: Pruning is essential to maintaining the shape and health of a bonsai. Regular pruning of the roots and canopy is necessary. Training with wires can also shape branches and direct growth.

Repotting: Most bonsai trees require repotting every 2-5 years to prevent root crowding and replenish nutrients in the soil. This is best done in the spring.

General Tips: Regularly inspect for pests and diseases. Bonsai trees are susceptible to insect infestations and fungal infections, which should be treated promptly to keep the tree healthy.

Order & Shipping Info:
-Plants ship in a grower's pot, fully rooted.
-We ship every Monday and Tuesday (excluding holidays) to avoid weekend delays.
-Our photos show what you can expect, but each plant is unique and may look slightly different upon arrival.
-Minor damage during shipping is entirely normal and should be expected, especially in extreme summer or winter temperatures. Don’t worry—damaged foliage can be trimmed away and will not affect the plant's root system or overall health.
-Hold off on watering if the soil is still moist, and wait 2-4 weeks before repotting or fertilizing. This patience will help your plant adjust smoothly without going into shock.

Amazing product - instant smoothness
Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I've only had this product for the last several days, but, so far, it's AMAZING. I've tried hyaluronic products before, because everyone says that you are supposed to for moisture, but, honestly, I was always underwhelmed. They were thin and did nothing. So, despite this one having great reviews, I was not really expecting anything, but the price was right. But this product....although liquid and clear, it's got a slight thickness to it, and spreads on very smooth. You only need a little bit to cover your entire face. Despite the slight thickness, it's not gooey or sticky at all, and it dries incredibly fast. In fact, if you don't spread it around onto your face quickly enough, it's already drying. There is no real smell to it. And, as soon as it dries onto your face, your skin feels incredibly smooth. Maybe it wouldn't if you had a significant dry skin problem to begin with, but for regular, maturing skin, it leaves skin baby smooth. And it lasts all day, and my skin looks better. I have very sensitive skin, and most things on my face eventually make my eyes water (even gentle facial moisturizers and sunscreens), but, so far, I haven't had an issue, and, because it's been a few days already, maybe I won't. Doesn't really feel like I'm wearing anything, and isn't a problem if I want to layer it with something else. I do wash it off at night, and can tell that something is still on my face even at the end of the day because it's a little slippery when I wash it. So it has staying power. For the price, I would definitely consider trying this product for moisturizing, and instantly smoother and softer skin.

plumping hydration with no greasiness or oiliness
Size: 1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Its featherweight and melds with the skin in an instant. It plumps without any residue or "slip" on the skin. I have normal skin that tends toward slight dehydration and I use adapalene and the Ordinary 2% Salicylic acid anhydrous for my sebaceous hyperplasia. Because of the sebaceous hyperplasia and the heat and extreme humidity where I live, I cannot use anything with oils or dimethicone or anything even remotely occlusive. This serum is a great way for me to get appropriate hydration without exacerbating those enlarged oil glands or making my face sticky and oily. I dont need my face sealed, a humectant like this pulls plenty of hydration into my skin and I dont lose it to the air because of the ambient humidity. Its pretty perfect for me. It also has kept my barrier intact while alternating the adapalene and salicylic acid. Its a huge bang for the buck, I mean the price point is unbeatable.

It's great for food delivery and driver jobs
Size: 7''x3''
My husband got this for food deliveries and uber/Lyft. The app let him add several texts. I believe he added 4. He was able to design it how he wanted it. It seemed fairly easy and I liked how it looked. The words would scroll over, like... Uber eats, etc... It included a big roll of strong red tape. The led screen product is charged by wall plug, phone, or the car usb phone charger. I think it was a spectacular product. I thought it was limited to 4 letters since it is small in size.
