Artistic Juniper Bonsai Tree | 33cm Tall Evergreen with Exemplary Form & Twisting Trunk
This exceptional artistic Juniper bonsai (Juniperus chinensis) stands at 33cm and displays exemplary form, beautiful movement and impressive refinement. Its trunk shows natural age through its reddish, flaky bark, while gentle twists create an elegant, artistic flow that immediately draws the eye. The exposed root flare (nebari) is particularly striking — strong, characterful and wonderfully balanced. Together with the tree’s tidy branching and compact silhouette, it creates a highly sculptural and expressive bonsai. Lloyd has recently re-potted this tasteful little chap into a brand new forest green ceramic bonsai pot.
Over many years, this tree has been ‘pinched out’ and shaped with care, producing an incredibly neat and tight canopy of soft evergreen foliage. Every element — from the trunk line to the refined foliage pads — shows deliberate craftsmanship and thoughtful styling. As a result, this bonsai feels mature, harmonious and full of personality despite its moderate size.
This is the exact bonsai you will receive.
A Timeless Species Loved by Beginners & Enthusiasts
The Chinese Juniper is one of the most admired bonsai species in the world. Soft scale-like evergreen foliage stays vibrant year-round, forming tidy, compact pads perfect for refined bonsai styling. As the tree matures, the bark naturally exfoliates, revealing reddish and cinnamon tones that bring depth, warmth and a sense of age.
Junipers became a household favourite thanks to Mr Miyagi in The Karate Kid, who famously tended his juniper bonsai with patience, wisdom and care. That same calming presence and artistic character is what makes this species so cherished today.
