This beautiful 15-year-old Fukien Tea bonsai is an exceptionally refined specimen, admired for both its structure and seasonal interest. The trunk displays a supreme, tightly controlled twist with elegant movement throughout, giving the tree a dramatic yet balanced presence. Neatly formed foliage pads sit close to the structure, creating a highly refined silhouette, while in summer the bonsai produces striking star-shaped white flowers that add contrast and charm. One of its most notable features is the area of shari on the lower quarter of the trunk. Shari refers to intentionally exposed deadwood where bark has been carefully removed to suggest age, weathering, and natural hardship, enhancing the impression of maturity and character. This detail adds depth and visual intrigue, particularly when combined with the strong trunk movement. The lower back branch provides excellent fill, giving the design depth and grounding the overall composition. Potted into a brand-new silvery green ceramic bonsai pot with fluted corners and a matching drip tray, the presentation feels elegant and complete. Standing approximately 38 cm high, this Fukien Tea bonsai is truly a sight to behold, offering exceptional craftsmanship, balance, and beauty from every angle.

Description

Carmona Indoor Bonsai Tree – A Unique Fukien Tea Flowering Bonsai

This 15-year-old Carmona Indoor bonsai is also known as the Fukien tea tree. It is a stunning example of bonsai craftsmanship, with a graceful trunk flow that’s extremely artistic. As the trunk rises, it twists elegantly, creating a striking shape that gives this bonsai a sense of movement and style. The branches are thoughtfully positioned along the curves. Thus, giving the tree a balanced and elegant look despite its relatively short stature—something that’s quite difficult to achieve in bonsai design.

Potted in a metallic silvery-green ceramic pot with a matching drip tray. The glaze of the pot will also depict the small star shaped ice-white flowers and the emerald green evergreen leaves. Just above the rim of the pot, your eyes are met with a fantastic feature shari. This bonsai is oozing with character and amazing attributes!

Foliage, Flowers, and Bark

The Carmona bonsai has small, glossy green leaves with a slightly leathery texture that stay vibrant and evergreen all year-round. During the warmer months, it produces tiny white flowers, adding a delicate beauty to its already striking form. Its bark, smooth yet textured with maturity, offers a wonderful contrast to the lush foliage and flowering display.

Perfect for Indoor Growing

As an indoor bonsai, the Fukien Tea Tree is both eco-friendly and sustainable. This makes it a great choice for adding some fresh, clean air to your living space or office. It’s also a thoughtful gift for nature lovers or those looking to add a touch of tranquillity to their environment. It could even be the start of a new hobby!

Care and Extras

This bonsai comes with a detailed care guide. Thereby, ensuring you have all the information you need to keep it healthy and thriving. Once you’ve added the bonsai to your basket, you’ll also have the option to include care essentials like bonsai fertiliser or gift wrap for a personal touch. A bottle of Bonsai Food is a great addition. It encourages new growth and flowering and provides all the nutrients the bonsai requires to thrive.
