9GreenBox - Juniper Bonsai Starter - 4'' Pot

This is a really cute little miniature juniper tree. It has a nice shape, this is my first time with a bonsai and I think this one looks great. The company ships the all their plants very carefully in bubble wrap and almost all the plants I've ordered from them have been in great shape. This one has a little bit of brown on some of the stems but mostly vibrant green.7 month Update: it has been almost 7 months since I first got it and this spring it really started showing vibrant new growth and is doing great! During the winter it was dormant so I kept it in a cool room with south-facing windows (around 45-50 F) and watered it occasionally with the rest of my succulents and plants. Honestly I didn't even know if I could keep it alive, it wasn't doing anything for a long time. Once I saw a lot of new growth I trimmed off a few small branches (I stuck them in the soil just to see if they would take root.) I'm very happy with this juniper bonsai!

Honestly, the plant arrived in amazing condition and still was well watered after being in shipping for 11 days. Packaging was excellent and the juniper was well guarded in the box which was another plus for me. It's also very healthy looking and no dead spots. I'll definitely buy from them again.

It was not as it looked in picture. I was not as bothered by this as that it was halfway dried out upon receiving, and I’m not sure if it’s even able to bounce back and/or grow. Not too happy with the purchase. You can’t return or get refunds

It arrived in good shape with moist soil. It's 2 to 3 inches tall. Root ball was moist and in good condition. I would recommend immediate transplant into potting soil (not bonsai soil). Potting soil has all the nutrients it will need to take off and get taller. Being an evergreen run your hand along it once in awhile. It should not shed needles if it is healthy. If it sheds just a few needles I wouldn't panic. Just keep an eye on it. After looking at the other pics I feel like they sent me a runt. I will give it a couple years and see. Assuming I have a couple years left.

It is adorable and arrived intact! Easy to care for and I just love it!

The juniper arrived in very poor condition, broken branches,and more brown colored growth than green. I have experience in plants and this one is in bad condition. I’ve replanted and trimmed ,but I’m not convinced it going to live. Spoke with Amazon CS and they ensured me that the vendor would contact me. It’s not the money,it’s the lousy plant and lousy vendor customer service.Disappointed Michael.

Let's end with the good. I ordered 7 plants which were haphazardly jammed in a box not standing up with little or no protective wrapping. One of the 7 did suffer a broken limb. The others only minimal foliage damage. Age and size ranged from a beautiful draping 6" or more tree. To what seemed to look like a 2" newer seedling. Again I was amazed at how they packed these little trees in the box being I have ordered some more expensive bonsia trees that were wrapped to a luxury and very well protected. That being said its been a week since their unveiling and all trees seem to be doing well. The goods. Good soil and moist upon arrival. Aside from the tree with a broken limb (which broke off half the plant) from shipping or mispacking. The price is unbeatable from what I've seen. Avg tree height I would say about 3" most of which have two branch clusters emerging from the soil (5 of 7). But for those who want a few new affordable trees to play with, this fits the pot.

I love how healthy the tree was on arrival, after 2 weeks it hasnt lost any needles and theyre all still green. Didnt lose too much soil around the roots either in shipping, unlike some sellers on ebay it came with plenty of soil
