Eve's Petite Japanese Juniper Bonsai Tree, 4 Years Old, Planted in 5 Inch Ceramic Container

I've only had this for a few days and there are some dead spots but I expected that given the distance it was shipped. The instruction sheet was poorly translated but gets the general idea across reasonably well. It was very well packaged but came with a spider (not advertised) who was happy to be relocated outdoors. The only qualm I have is that I was hoping for a tree in the style of the picture (a single straight trunk with several branches &ct.), but it actually looks almost exactly like this Bonsai Juniper Tree in shape, while being also significantly sparser than pictured. Basically it looks like a small branch in a pot, rather than a small TREE in a pot. It is still pretty, but I feel like I could have stuck the end of a pine branch in a pot and had a very similar look.

I bought this tree and didn't know what to expect from the reviews. It arrived today in seemingly good health, no brown spots however a very small amount of dead foliage in the substrate which I promptly removed. Shipping was fast, 3 days from cali to pa and the tree was packed very nicely in such a way that it couldn't accidentally fall out of its pot. Mine looks to be about 6-7 inches tall, lots of little branches and nice green foliage, will probably have to restyle this spring however all in all I think this was a good purchase.I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to start bonsai. Will be a welcome addition to my front porch. :)

I bought this Bonsai for my mom for mother's day. Let's see - that was 4 months ago? I finally got to see it the other day, and BOY WAS IT SMALL! It was still alive and well - but my mother has quite the green thumb. She said it had been suffering the past month. I hope it can continue to grow! The pot and plant itself are very pretty for the price.

It is a unique possession and the most beautiful mini tree i have ever had the pleasure of owning. I must assure its survival,as i absolutely adore biological beauty and the mysteries which beckon. Another reason i had purchased this Japanese cultured tree is to be able to help the country whose devastating tsunami destroyed much of their botanical life as such this past year,2011. I hope my purchase did indeed help the Oriental country.I wish to thank the people whom have given us,a diverse people in the U.S,the pleasure of sharing their distinct beauty with us.

I bought this for a friends birthday and had it shipped to her. I forgot all about it until she called me early one morning asking if I had sent it to her. She found the box on the front porch-she hadn't been out that way in a while. I remembered and said "Yes!!" She was so excited and said she had stayed up half the night reading all the instructions and is really loving it. Great gift! She said it came packaged perfectly and was gorgeous!! THanks....

This has to be one of the worst bonsai purchases that I've EVER made (that includes the cheap tools that broke soon after receiving them)! This tree was exactly the same thing as the do it yourself kit (Eve's Bonsai Tree Starter Kit, Complete Do-It-Yourself Kit with 6 Year Old Small Japanese Juniper). They took this tree from a 4" pot and transplanted it into the bonsai pot that is shown, leaving a round cylinder (that was about 2" above the top of the pot) with roots setting in the middle of the pot. The pot was only filled in around half of the way, leaving the thicker feeler roots exposed, some were even coming over of the sides of the pot. I will never, ever purchase from this seller again.

I was told the bonsai tree container would be 5 inches which is correct but i was told the actual tree was 6 to 8 inches its barely 5 inches i was dissapointed in the size of the tree.

The bonsai trees came already planted and packed perfectly. I love them. I can already see new growth. I recommend you buy from this seller. 5 stars!!!
