  • Don’t buy if you don’t have a green thumb.
Most of the seeds did not grow. I gave half to my girlfriend for her home who has a green thumb and she has 4 plants going strong. They grow slow and need care. The one I was able to save was knocked down and chewed on by my kitten which was very sad but my lady loves them and they look great in her home. She took a lot of pride in keeping them alive. 7 months and they are not very big but going strong. The kit was nice but do your own research, instructions do not include long term care. It was a great thing to share with her and it makes me happy she was able to keep hers alive. These take work, if you are a dummy like me and can’t grow stuff don’t buy them and let someone like my lady grow them and give them a nice home. 10/10 would gift again. ... show more

  • Great kit, 4 beautiful species, no stratificattion needed. Would recommend.
The kit contains everything you need to start bonsai trees. I do recommend getting a bigger pot and replacing the peat soil with akadama soil after the seeds germinated. In my experience, the Picea Abies seeds have the low germination success (1 out of 4 seeds) and Jacaranda Mimosifolia (2 of 6 seeds). The Jacaranda Mimosifolia takes a long time to germinate so be patient with that one. Pinus Arista and Delonix Regia were able to germinate successfully and rapidly although scarification is recommended for Delonix Regia since its shell is extremely hard and waterproof. NONE OF THE SEEDS REQUIRES STRATIFICATION PROCESS. :D Don't expect immediate results and beautiful trees since these are seeds and requires years to grow before training. Overall, a good and well-priced kit for a beautiful ancient art. Update: 3 months All the trees are growing nicely. One of the Delonix died, the other is starting to die. Found out they are really sensitive to water and temperature so do not over water it/leave in extreme temps. (The leaves open and close in relation to environmental condition) This has happened before but it came back. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THE PEAT SOIL FOR THIS TREE. The Jacaranda Mimosifolia starts off slow but began to grow really rapidly; main trunk is starting to show signs of barks and hardening. The remaining pine-like trees are still alive but grows really really slowly, not much noticable growth since one month in. ... show more

  • Bummed only one seed germinated
I wish I knew how to contact this company and request a new seed set, I followed the instructions to a T and only one seed germinated. I was excited to grow Bonsai trees, the one that is growing seems to be doing great. When soaking the seeds, I saw almost no activity. The seeds must have been damaged or frozen. Kinda bummed. I gave it 2 stars because everything was there, and I did get one tree. Update: Planters Choice contacted me and offered to fully refund my purchase. I suspect that the seeds were damaged somehow, and I am very grateful they responded so quickly. I will most likely give them another chance since there are so many positive reviews. I bumped the review to 4 stars due to them quickly contacting me and wanting to make things right. ... show more

  • Set expectations low.
I would give it three ⭐s but, Only one has grown which is not the matching the packaged seed. The second is super slow and not sure if the germination is longer on this particular seed. The other two seeds are completely non-existent. There's no trace of anything being planted. My knowledge of bonsai's after a few classes of planting saps. I understand what has grown is simply just the Norway spruce seeds. The secondary set of seeds that are growing, very slowly are the royal poncinia seeds. I will continue to care for them and give an honest review update if and when they sprout. Just be aware what you are getting are simply the blue jacaranda bonsai plant seed. They are still amazing plants, but it would be cool to have the purple and a red ones as advertised as well as the Rocky mountain pine. ... show more

  • Patience is key and lots of research
I’ll try to update when I have a more bonsái looking tree but for now I’ll share my experience so far. The sowing of the seeds is pretty straight forward however I do think the royal seed needs more info. Within the first week I saw the Rocky Mountain pine sprout then the blue j seeds sprouted and 3 weeks passed and the other two nothing. I had done a lot of research through out this time and decided I’d try to help my other two seeds to sprout. I read that the royal seeds can be hard for sprouts to sprout because of its tough skin and need to be scored to help the sprout push it’s way out. So I took them all out found one was already sprouting and had an inch of root already grown but the seed skin was to heavy for it to push it up so I fixed that one and scored the rest and reburied them laying flat not to deep in soil and waited. One week later I had two new sprouts for a total of 3. The others were duds. I tried helping the Norway spruce but they are nowhere to be found in the soil I didn’t sow them deep I followed instructions did some more research on top of what the booklet info had but it seems like all the Norway spruce seeds were duds. Which sucks but 3/4 isn’t so bad. The blue and rocky so easily sprouted it was exciting to see. The royal just needed a little extra help but also exciting. It actually feels therapeutic to troubleshoot the trees and to check on them daily make sure they are fine gently fix them or move them when necessary. I bought a little sun light strip and they are currently located indoors on an empty shelf with the sun light strip above them on the lowest setting for 12 hrs a day I don’t water them to often because they aren’t in proper pots. Overall good deal I don’t think the kit is expensive for what you get. Moving on to the cons Only 3/4 seeds sprouted Norway spruce never germinated and they seem to have disappeared. The booklet has very little helpful info your better off going on google and YouTube. The coco soil stuff keeps growing some type of mold fuzz on top like white fuzz sometimes turning into bluish greenish fuzz if you leave it. I’m not overwatering them I let the soil start to dry before even watering them again and I don’t give them a lot of water when I do. The burlap style pot isn’t very good for this use. It isn’t leaking fluid but I can feel the outside of it is moist more so on the bottom. The burlap pots don’t offer good drainage which is very much needed for these trees. While pretty I would have much preferred some cheap plastic pots with drainage at the bottom. My guess is maybe that’s why the fuzz starts to grow. Maybe it has to do with the coco I’m not sure. I think they could probably change out the types of pots for cheap plastic drainage friendly ones. Overall tho not bad for the price I did get it with a coupon I think it was 12-15 in total. I will not however give it 4-5 stars because of the dud seeds and the fuzz that myself and others have experienced growing on the top of their soil and because of the non conducive pot as well as the booklet they count as an add on bonus that lacks info on bonsai practice and the seeds and even the basics on how and when to cut your tree sprout to start the bonsai process because if you just plant this and keep repotting this eventually you’ll have a normal sized tree thinking it’s somehow supposed to stay small and be a cool mini tree because you were sold bonsai tree seeds. Anyways I hope this info helps I’ll update pictures whenever I remember to on this review. ... show more
