Brussel's Bonsai Live Fukien Tea Indoor Bonsai Tree-6 Years Old 6" to 10" Tall with Decorative Container,

This a beautiful tree that actually looks much better than the original photo on the auction. The price was phenomenal and the way it was packaged, nothing could touch the foliage even if the box was upside down. It is healthy and blooming. I hope I can keep it looking this good

Honestly, Brussel's Bonsai is the absolute best place to buy Bonsai. That's it.If you care to know why, and the pictures I have aren't obvious then read some more.Brussel's Bonsai not only has the best prices you will see ANYWHERE, trust me i have check every bonsai seller online, but they also include FREE shipping, they sell on amazon, its super duper fast, and to put the cherry on top (most important) their trees are absolutely stunning! Every tree in my pictures is from brussel's (except the little ginseng thats on my bookshelf, i got that from ikea and repotted to make a bonsai). If you see any review lower than a one star do NOT believe it. Brussel's has excellent customer service, so if you aren't happy or your tree is dead on arrival (not a few weeks or months later because you don't know how to take care of a bonsai) then they will happily assist you.I have purchased bonsai from a few other places, most charge INSANE shipping costs that would double any prices you see online not including tax. Brussel's is by far the best and only place to shop for bonsai.Now keep in mind you need to know how to take care of each plant, its very very easy but only once you know how to keep your plants alive. Also each species of bonsai is different and requires different care. Please do your research!In case anyone is curious.First Picture: The small tree on the left is the Fukien Tea (Small), middle- Chinese Elm (Large), Right- Podocarpus (Large).2nd picture is the same3rd picture: Left/Bookshelf- Ginseng, Middle- Podocarpus (Large, different one), Right- Ficus Grove- One size only.4th is the Ficus Grove close up5th is the Podocarpus close up

The fukien tea arrived with very moist soil and the tips of the larger leaves were black and soft to the touch. Not saying its been overwatered but that is a sign of an over watered plant. All the leaves had the tiny white spots on top typical of a fukien. But along with them were black/brown spots and small blotches on top and underneath the leaves. From what I've read, its most likely a fungus. The tree shed about 70% of its leaves within two days after arrival, but for a fukien thats to be expected, they are very sensitive and hate being moved. In the soil I spotted a couple of rust colored bugs but they burrowed and I couldn't identify. No infestation by any means, but I also don't want to see bugs on a newly purchased bonsai. Most of the leaves turned brownish black and fell off. Of the leaves that remain, most have black tips and/or black/brown spots and blotches. And there's no sign of re-growth.After much consideration, I removed the remaining leaves that had any signs of fungus and now it really looks like its on life support. I then made a fungicide of liquid soap and water and sprayed the remaining leaves and trunk.I knew before buying that a fukien tea would be challenging. I followed the instructions perfectly until it was clear that it needed serious help. At this point, I'm not very confident it will survive, in fact it may already be dead 😕 But I'll give the fungicide some more time to work and will post an update if by some miracle it pulls out of this death spiral.

This is not for beginners! My husband (who is a beginner) wanted this bonsai tree for Christmas. It arrived pretty healthy, unfortunately the planter was cracked. So we ordered a new planter, replanted the tree and followed the instructions to our best ability. It’s now mid January and the poor thing is not looking well. It’s lost most of its leaves and the stems are dying, as shown in the photo. We are still hoping by some miracle it snaps out of it. I don’t like the idea of spending that much money only to kill the poor thing less than a month after receiving it.

I have my beautiful tree indoors and it appeared completely healthy for a few weeks, but then I began to notice very small white things on the leaves. Then the buds began to wither. Now there are black things adhering to the smallest branches: aphids! I am going to have to take measures to kill the pests, but in the dead of winter, the last thing I want to do is spray them with Raid in the house! (Or the garage....) This is a very disappointing development, especially since I did considerable research before I bought my tree and decided that the reports from other customers about their trees becoming infested was an anomaly, and took the chance. I sense that this is a mistake and caution others to be prepared to deal with pests. Too bad, because the service was pretty darn good and the tree and pot were beautiful. I was stoked. Now I'm worried!UPDATE: A year later, I am pleased to report that after I took care of the infestation with insecticide soap from Bonide, and the tree is thriving.

This came in 2 days (said 2-3 days) in perfect condition. It was so well packed not any spillage of soil, very impressive. It looked even better in person than on line. Lost very few leaves initially (maybe 5%) since leaves and flowers are a joy to observe and manicure. Best gift ever.

This sweet little tree has been doing really well for the 2 months I’ve had it, blooming and producing new leaves. It did go through the normal leaf droppage, and adaptation period. The leaves are vibrant green that mature to a beautiful dark green, however, they lack the signature white dots of the other Fukien Teas I have had in the past. This tree also produces long vines with white or pink flowers at the end. Again, unlike previous Fukien trees I’ve had flowered very close to the base of the leaves.Whatever this tree’s identity, it is a hardy little thing that enjoys the West facing window I have it in and doesn’t seem to mind being watered every 3-4 days (manufactures suggest watering every 2-3 days).
