Juniperus chinensis – Juniper – 32 cm
A Juniperus chinensis plant for bonsai, characterised by a height of 18 cm (excluding the pot) and a trunk diameter of 1 cm. The plant is grown in a round, unglazed terracotta pot measuring Ø13.5 x H10 cm.
Bonsai are living organisms and each one is different from the others, so the plant you receive will be similar to, but not identical to, the one shown in the photograph. The height may vary as the plant grows.
The size, colour and shape of the pot may vary depending on availability.
This Juniperus chinensis (juniper) specimen, an evergreen conifer, is prized for its elegance and resilience in a variety of conditions. The compact, branched foliage is a deep green colour. The trunk, with its sinuous and elegant lines, features bark that cracks over time, giving this bonsai a distinctive appearance. Grown in a round, unglazed terracotta pot, it highlights the movement of the trunk and the balance of the crown, without distracting the eye.
Grow bonsai outdoors all year round, taking care to place it in a sheltered spot during the colder months and in partial shade during the warmer months.
Always respect the dry and wet cycles: whenever the soil feels dry to the touch, water it thoroughly. Then wait for the soil to dry out before watering again in the same way.
