Elm in training

[Blackfoot]

Guys, i have a healthy young elm in my possession that ive been agonising over.
i dont know whether to grow it out as a clump or cut some out early.
ive head it for about a month now and when i brought it home from the nursery the leaves dried right out and started browning which ive noticed a lot of my elms have done before. i defoliated it and within 2 weeks shes wearing a healthy coat again. Anyone with any input as to which direction to start pushing this tree in?

In the famous song from the movie Frozen, I'd............. "let it grow, let it grow".

If you don't have young kids, you'll be thinking what the.......!

no kids of my own but the theatrical taste of a 12 year old.

You can probably do just about anything you want with it. Decide what you want to do and then go for it.

I agree with Andrew. Decide what to aim for and grow that one into your dream. There's really not enough there at the moment to suggest anything.

Yeah, im thinking I'll just plant it in an oversized pot and let it go nuts for a few seasons.
