Best Bonsai for Outdoors
Juniper "Basics" Bonsai Starters
The perfect "basics" starter plants! These Kishu junipers are perfect for so many things! (The botanical Latin name is Juniperus chinensis 'Kishu' or Juniperus chinensis Sargentii 'Kishu')
Perfect for:
- Teaching beginners classes
- Learning to wire young trees
The trunks are about 3/16"-1/4" diameter and they are 8-16" tall. We ship them in 3x9 Anderson Bands. They are 3 years old and ready for styling. Most of the trees have some movement in the first two inches above the nebari (root junction.)
Kishu are among the best junipers for bonsai, with tight delicate foliage that creates heavenly clouds almost by itself. The runners (strong central shoots) are used to make branches and trunks. Wood production is faster in hotter climates.
The photos are representative, and do not show the actual tree you will receive.
Our trees are healthy and vigorous - these are grown in 14 hours of direct summer sunlight! Our trees are all created in our own operation and are made specifically for bonsai use.
