As an update to my last post, requesting identification of my recent purchase, I have now got some photos:- https://www.flickr.com/photos/8173772@N08/shares/ekD07y |

I would guess at Sageretia. Bird plum. |

It's not elm because they have alternate leaves, your tree has opposite leaves. I don't think it's sagaretia - here's a pic of sagaretia - before I trimmed it last week when i got back from holiday.  I think yours might be a crabapple. The leaves and the bark are similar to sagaratia but crabapple leave are more serrated. |

Thank you I will look that up now too... I can show two more photos taken today of the group and the leaves. It is totally pot bound and needs attention but until I know for sure what it is, how to treat it and when, I am loathe to do anything. Will I have to wait and watch to identify it for sure? I notice some discolouration of some of the leaves, is this a sign that it is deciduous I wonder? It is still outside in the sun at present (I will bring it into the conservatory for the winter). I live in West Wales which is fairly mild but very wet. |

Another idea. Could be Zanthoxylum - Pepper tree. |
