Species: Zelkova
Age: ≈ 13-15 years old

General
This zelkova is an indoor tree that thrives especially in the summer. In order for the tree to flourish, two main things are of importance: sunlight and watering.
Sunlight
It is important that the zelkova gets as much sunlight as possible, so for instance near a window would be a good spot to place the bonsai.
Watering
Preferably you do not want to water your bonsai on a fixed basis. Instead, just check every now and then by hand if the soil feels slightly dry. If this is the case you can water the bonsai generously.
* Trees pictured are subject to natural changes depending on different breeding batches.
Your bonsai will be taken from the greenhouse the same day it is delivered.

I have ordered two bonsai trees, one for myself and the other at another address to give as a gift. I just received my own bonsai and it looks fantastic! Highly recommended! Thanks guys! 👌

Good fast delivery, well packaged. It is important that the tree does not dry out during transport. This is super! A manual focused on the type of "bonsai" would have been nice.

Besides that the tree looks awfully good, the service is also fantastic. After the first package was lost in the mail, they immediately switched and provided a solution. 10/10!

The Story of Omotenashi
“It was rain season. I was walking through a lonely section of Nara's southern region. I passed through the midst of a flood that was still raging. One small village had been completely destroyed by the water. I asked a local farmer if I could help, and he thanked me. He told me the floods happen almost every year. Oftentimes, it's the things you can't imagine that make you aware, and increase your gratitude. Gratitude for what already exists and what not.”
