Description

Native to East Asia the Chinese Elm is one of the most popular bonsai trees, especially among beginners. These lovely semi-evergreen trees can grow up to 65 feet tall in their native habitat, but have been cultivated in miniature form for Bonsai for generations. It is an ideal choice for those just starting out because it is slow-growing and tolerant, the Chinese Elm allows beginners plenty of time and forgiveness to grow accustomed to bonsai care making it one of the most loved and most undemanding of miniature trees. Features beautiful, distinctive dark gray to reddish brown bark that turns fissure and corky when mature. It has a lovely branching shape with delicate, oval shaped toothed leaves that showcase a fresh green color and a delightfully tiny leaf. It has a highly predictable growth pattern, making it ideal for beginners who are just getting used to training Bonsai. Each live plant is shipped with the Phytosanitary Certificate as required by the USDA.

    • Man oh man, what beautiful tree!
Size: MEDIUM Style: Ceramic Pot
I've never gone out of my way to write an Amazon review because I've never really bought anything either bad or good enough to warrant me wanting to do so. But I bought a chinese elm from Brussels and I have to say, I was amazed at what an awesome, beautiful tree I received. First of all, it came the exact day they said it would. It was packaged very well. The pot was very well wrapped and the soil was still very moist. Everything was in tact. No broken branches, no broken, or cracked pot, not even any soil spilled. The tree came in a very nice, beautiful pot. Perfect for the trees age/size. The pot was well filled with a very good, high quality mix of organic and inorganic soil. It drains very very well, while still maintaining just enough moisture for a couple days. The tree itself that I got is incredible. This was my first time ordering a tree online and honestly I didn't have the highest hopes or expectations. I figured anyone selling trees on Amazon probably doesn't have the time to maintain these things much further than just watering them and keeping them alive. No, Brussels sent me a very beautifully styled tree. There is so much great movement in the trunk and all the branches. I was blown away. There wasn't a single dead or dying leaf on the tree. The leaves are incredibly small, beautiful foliage and half the foliage on it was fresh green new growth coming in. I read a couple reviews of people saying they got there tree with the branches "all chopped up". I got a tree the was very recently pruned and trimmed. To perfection. The guy saying he got a tree that was all chopped up probably doesn't know d*ck about bonsai. It's like uh yeah buddy, at some point you have to prune and trim these trees. Well you have to a lot actually! And Brussels did a really fine job trimming and pruning mine before they sent it out. My only, only qualm would be there's a few spots with very slight wire scaring. Which honestly to me isn't that big of a deal. They are hardly noticeable unless you're really looking for it. Especially considering they are mass producing these and selling them online! If you don't want any wire scaring I'd say grow your own perfect tree for 7 or 8 years, lol. Still five stars from me hands down. Like I said, I was extremely nervous to by a tree online. But I'm definitely going to be buying more trees from them this coming spring. ... show more

    • Got here safe Looks very healthy. Very cute little tree. Couldn't be happier.

Review Image by Daniel
Got here safe and sound. Looks like the pictures, looks very healthy. Very cute little tree. Couldn't be happier. NOTE: As others have stated, I did see some small bugs/afids on it. The soil doesn't smell bad or off, so I am hoping it doesn't become an issue. Will keep an eye on it to ensure it doesn't get infested. I think a small cup of Apple Cider Vinegar and Dawn soap sitting next to it should deal with that issue if it gets any worse. I did add the white container underneath the green pot it came in so it doesn't drain onto my shelf when watering. ... show more

    • The Leaning Tower of Tree-sa: My Bonsai’s Tragicomic Journey from Amazon to Afterlife
Size: Small Style: Ceramic Pot
Review Image by JB
The media could not be loaded. (1 star for surviving the delivery apocalypse) Let me start by saying: I’ve never felt such a complex emotional bond with a plant. When my bonsai arrived, the box looked like it had survived a WWE cage match with a forklift. I opened it expecting either enlightenment or an angry squirrel. Instead, I found what can only be described as a tiny haunted forest spirit who’s seen too much. The leaves, which were supposed to be lush and green, are instead a delightful shade of existential brown. They crunch when you breathe near them — not from freshness, but from despair. I gently tried to prune one and it disintegrated in my hand like Thanos had just snapped. The pot? Oh, the pot. It’s not just uneven — it leans like it’s trying to escape the entire situation. It wobbles dramatically, as if to say, “Why are any of us even here?” When I tried to water the tree, all the water flowed to one side and promptly flooded the table, which, I must admit, was the most action this bonsai has seen in weeks. The instructions said “Place in indirect sunlight,” but I think what it really needed was an exorcism and maybe a motivational speech. In conclusion, I bought this bonsai to bring serenity into my life. Instead, I got a small, crispy reminder of life’s fleeting nature and a pot that moonlights as a seesaw. Would I recommend it? Only if you enjoy chaos, irony, and plants that look like they just came back from a bad vacation in Mordor. Namaste, I guess. ... show more

    • Cute Twisted Trunk Pre-Bonsai. Needs love, a few years, and a fatter trunk and should be beautiful.
Size: Small Style: Ceramic Pot
I received my tree only a few days after placing the order. It came wrapped for the long haul(I now have a lifetime supply of packing peanuts). The pot was overstuffed with good gritty, wet dirt and wrapped in plastic to avoid water loss. It went through some leaf-loss the days following it's arrival.I am happy to report that after a couple days of careful spraying the leaves with filtered water, keeping high humidity, and actually placing it on a north-facing windowsill, this tree is now growing again and has 40-50 new buds for leaves and branches. Resilient little guy. The pot is accommodating for at least another two years and this 9-inch tall tree shows serious promise if I can get the roots exposed properly. Thanks for a fun project that will look beautiful and give fruit for years to come. Stage 2: I repotted it halfway through the summer in a larger pot to help keep proper humidity. Gave it a moss covering and some small stones...watered it well and left it in the shade all summer. It grew more than expected and now has 5 new branches to bend and shape. It continues to produce growth even through the winter and has dropped leaves 3 different times now but still keeps coming back. Apparently PA winters are not what it is used to. I am Happy with this guy who is slowly becoming a slightly larger Bonsai than they originally intended, but I think it looks better a little more natural. That twisted trunk is cool. The scar that I noticed when it first arrived looks really neat now...almost like the perfect squirrel hideout. ... show more
