Order Notice: Orders placed now will be shipped out starting on January 21st. Thank you for your patience as we prepare your bonsai with the utmost care.

This Chinese Elm is a no-nonsense, serious bonsai planted in a traditional Yixing bonsai pot with a patent-pending feature to retain water for easy maintenance. The Chinese Lacebark Elm is a desirable choice for bonsai because of its graceful branches, small serrated leaves, and distinctive mottled bark.

This hardy deciduous species is adaptable, a vigorous grower resilient to pruning, and thrives in a variety of climates, making it an excellent choice for beginners and experienced bonsai enthusiasts alike. What we provide is a living canvas for you to create nature as you envision it. Simply clip away any branch growth outside of your design parameters.

The “handy-dandy” clipper we use is included as a FREE gift with each bonsai we ship (while supplies last).

Please note: Due to their nature, trees grow and may need pruning, so the tree that you receive may differ slightly in appearance and/or size to the images in this listing.

  • Hardy and vigorous, easy to grow into a magnificent specimen bonsai.
  • Prefers rich, moist loam, well-drained soils.
  • A popular bonsai tree because its bark develops an aged look, leaves become tiny with clipping, and the tree is easy to maintain.
  • A standout feature of the Bonsai Heirloom cultivar is that most will have red foliage in the fall.
  •  Implemented for easy maintenance and longevity, using a proprietary soil composition in our patent pending YiXing bonsai pot that retains moisture.
  • Includes a unique built-in root pruning system for work-free maintenance.
  • Formal upright, each tree is distinctively natural.
  • Overall height of the bonsai from the base to the top of the tree is around 12”, and the width of the pot is 10". 

We offer free shipping on all orders! Please note that we currently ship exclusively within the 48 contiguous United States. Stay tuned as we work toward expanding our reach to serve bonsai enthusiasts internationally in the future!
