Frequently asked questions
The Satsuki Azalea Bonsai needs to be watered when the top soil feels dry to the touch. During hotter months, this may mean daily watering, while in cooler months, watering frequency will decrease. Always ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent root rot.
The Satsuki Azalea Bonsai is an outdoor bonsai. It thrives in conditions where it can receive ample sunlight, preferably morning sunlight with some afternoon shade. It should be protected from extreme temperatures, both hot and cold.
The Satsuki Azalea Bonsai typically blooms in late spring to early summer. Blooms can last several weeks. To encourage flowering, provide adequate sunlight, water, and nutrients, and prune appropriately after the blooming season.
Fertilize the Satsuki Azalea Bonsai with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer formulated for azaleas or bonsais. Start fertilizing in early spring and continue through late summer, reducing frequency as the season progresses. Avoid fertilizing when the tree is flowering.

My plant arrived safely. The plant was wrapped nicely so that dirt did not fly everywhere in the box. I've had the plant for a week now and it looks to be growing. A few leaves have already dropped but I think the plant is trying to adjust to it's new surroundings. I have the plant indoors next to my south-facing window. It gets a little bit of light in the morning and then gets the sunshine from the afternoon sun. It is next to my router so hopefully it won't dry out from the air emitting from the router's vent. I placed a plate with rocks and water underneath it to keep the area humid. I've been watering it every day since it is summer and letting the water run out the holes in the bottom. Since it sits on my work desk, I can investigate it each day to make sure it's not dying or drying out. I see it has 2 buds that have not opened. I'll update again in a month to see if the buds actually flower. Update a month or so later: I updated another picture of the bonsai, a side by side view of when I first got it to now. I have to preface that I am watering the plant almost every day or every other day if I see the humidity plate is low on water. It is summer so the house does get warm and my plant is next to the router on my work desk. Also, I have been collecting the fallen leaves to show the amount of leaves I'm losing. Despite the amount of leaves im losing, I do see that the leaves are growing bigger on my plant. So I think the fallen leaves are just from my plant adjusting to the environment. This is a tree and trees do drop leaves occasionally. My tree does look sparser than the original so I'm not sure if I'm trending in the right direction. But still it does not look bad. Ill leave my rating at 5 stars for now. My plant still looks healthy. Also the buds I had originally have not bloomed. Hoping it's just going through a blooming cycle and won't just die off.

This plant started dying the first week it arrived. It did not matter how much I watered it it was not going to come alive. I decided to look at the roots to see if that was the problem. I couldn't even pull the plant out (notice the picture above). Since when do they ever wire a tree to its pot? They might secure it in there temporarily, but never with hard wire. Notice the other picture, the wires go through the root system. They must have hurt the roots while securing it in this pot. That's why ...they killed it before it even got to me! After finally untwisting the wires, I pulled the dead tree out and you could tell by the root system that they killed it! I tried writing them a letter but never heard back from them. Also, the picture shows a turquoise pot. The pot is green. Extremely disappointed!

Bonsai came shipped in a very protective way. The pot was saran wrapped to a foam base and there was not way it was moving around. The tree is bigger than expected and in beautiful condition.

I truly enjoy the bonsais I purchased from this shop. They are packed with extreme care. The quality of the bonsais have been very good. These add beauty to my home and yard. Pictured is the small elm I repotted and the azalea.

Update: replacement came, everything great. Easy to get my problem fixed. >>My bonsai arrived a day early. I was watching closely, since it's January and I'm in Colorado. The tree looked great when it arrived, well watered and healthy-looking. The pot. however, was split in transit. As soon as I got shipping info to their customer service, I was told a replacement would be sent that. day (yesterday). I had told them I was okay with just replacing the pot, since I've been raising Bonsai for many years. It sounded like I may get a new tree, which would be ideal, as trees, even little ones, are slow to show damage and the tree would normally not be due for repotting for several years. I. noted that several reviews are pretty negative, but growing bonsai is more difficult than just indoor gardening; especially sensitive to too much or too little water. If this is a first bonsai, books and/or You-tubes are essential for success. Brussels is a great source for one.

The tree arrived very well packaged and there was no damage to the pot or tree. The pot is very nice, and the tree was wired in tightly. But even though the description talked about flowering, and it was the right time for it to flower, there were only dead little flower buds and no chance they were going to do anything. There was new growth of leaves and the tree looked somewhat healthy. Very disappointed that there werenβt going to be any flowers as these Satsuki Azaleas are renowned for their flowers. I gave it a few weeks to settle in, and then decided to repot the tree, into new Bonsai soil. I was very disappointed to see the root ball was solid roots grown round and round each other as though it had never been repotted. This is supposed to be a 5 year old tree. It was very difficult to get the roots loose and I had to wash the old soil off with a hose. I used a larger pot, with mesh and wires to hold the tree in, tried to spread the roots out and filled in with new Bonsai soil. Iβm not sure how itβs going to survive, after 2 weeks the old leaves are turning yellow and dropping off. Not a good sign. However there is some new growth with new leaves so maybe I can save it yet. I will not be buying any more trees this way.

This item would have received a 5 star rating g but it was quite damaged. Several larger branches were snapped and broken, loose in the box. A gorgeous azalea, though. It will take some time to fill in the large gap the missing branches caused. It is very healthy and quite nice.
