6” Juniper Bonsai in Ceramic Planter
Rooted in centuries of tradition, the Juniper Bonsai brings a sense of calm, beauty, and old-world grace to any space. This petite version—standing 6 to 10 inches tall—is lovingly nestled in a classic ceramic planter, making it the perfect ready-to-go gift or charming accent for your home.

A Touch of History
Bonsai, meaning “planted in a container,” dates back over a thousand years and was first cultivated in ancient China before becoming a beloved art form in Japan. The Juniper, a favorite in bonsai tradition, is known for its hardy nature and evergreen beauty—symbolizing peace, patience, and balance.

Care Instructions

• Light: Enjoys bright, indirect sunlight. Outdoors on a covered porch or patio is ideal in mild climates.

• Water: Keep soil evenly moist, not soggy. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry. Always allow excess water to drain.

• Placement: Junipers love fresh air. Outdoors is best, but indoors can work if you provide a bright, cool spot away from dry heat or drafts.

Pruning Tips
Regular pruning helps your bonsai maintain its beautiful shape and promotes healthy growth. Trim back new shoots using sharp bonsai scissors to preserve the silhouette of the tree. Avoid heavy pruning all at once—think of it as slow, thoughtful tending, just like generations before us.

Fertilization
Feed your bonsai with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring through early fall). Avoid fertilizing in the winter when the tree is resting. Look for bonsai-specific or low-nitrogen options for best results.

Grows Best:
Juniper bonsai trees are happiest outdoors in temperate weather. They benefit from seasonal changes and fresh air. If brought indoors, be sure to provide plenty of natural light, gentle humidity, and good airflow.
