We have done research on the best way to package and ship your Bonsai tree. This has resulted in a special packaging method for the shipment of our products that ensures that your bonsai arrives in a good and healthy condition.

We always make sure that your bonsai has had enough water before it is packed and given to our delivery partner, providing the tree with at least 6 days of sufficient nutrition, ensuring a healthy and in good condition tree upon delivery.

Taking care of a Bonsai tree is considered as difficult by many people, whilst this is actually not the case. With just a few main simple steps it is very easy to properly take care of your bonsai.

To guide you in this process, we have developed a Bonsai Care Guide which perfectly explains to you how to make sure your bonsai will strive. This care guide is free and given to all our customers with their order.

Along with our care guide, in addition we also have specific care tips per Bonsai species on our product pages.

If the health of your bonsai is going backwards, it is crucial to act quickly to try and save it. Please contact us as soon as possible to help with the situation. Waiting until the tree has lost all its leaves, or they have become dry and brown, means that it is already too late for us to assist you in reviving it.

Therefore, it is essential to reach out to us promptly so that we can provide you with the necessary guidance and support to save your bonsai tree. Don't hesitate to get in touch with us if you notice any signs of deterioration in your tree's health.

Yes! All of our Bonsai trees come with completely free unique pottery with a matching plate which is all made of high quality ceramic material. This pot is designed to drain excess water through the drainage holes on the bottom.

We do our best to package all Bonsai as best we can so there is little chance of this happening. Of course, things can go wrong somewhere in the delivery process.
