DIY Bonsai Kit

Pre-Bonsai

What "Pre-Bonsai" Means:

• Trees that can be easily made into a nice bonsai by anyone.
• Well-developed trees, trained from the start to become a specimen bonsai without tangled roots.
• A more affordable entry point for beginners or a rewarding project for seasoned hobbyists.
• Excellent for training, experimentation, and long-term development.

What To Expect:

• Our Pre-Bonsai come in one-gallon nursery pots filled with our proprietary soil mix blended specifically for bonsai potting.

What to Do:

• Use the soil that comes with the tree to plant it in your own bonsai pot (or a BH bonsai pot which comes with a root pruning mesh) to have a decent starter bonsai. 
• Alternatively, you might choose to keep it in the nursery pot for at least a few months to speed up its growth before eventually planting it into a bonsai pot. If you choose that route, it will give you the opportunity to have a more mature-looking tree sooner

Ceramic Bonsai Pots

• Traditionally crafted, ceramic bonsai pots.
• Each is hand-made, using a unique purple clay found only in the Yixing region of China. 
• This clay is known for its fine grain and porous nature, and it is prized for its ability to retain moisture and allow for good air circulation, creating optimal conditions for bonsai tree growth.
• These pots are unglazed (as is the tradition), which further showcases the natural beauty of the clay while enhancing its breathability.
• Every bonsai pot will come with a sheet of root-pruning screen that you can cut down to fit your pot.

Material: XiYing Purple Clay (unglazed)

Drainage:

• Series 1: 2 holes on side of the pot (none in the base)
