Help identify my bonsai

[sageblade24]

I have had this bonsai for a couple of weeks. Can anyone help me identify what is it?



Thank you.

It could be paulownia tomentosa. But I'm clueless to be honest.. I never got those past the seedling stage so I dont know how adult foliage should look.

looks like a Red Bud - here is a image of Eastern Red Bud leaves and flower


but after a harder look your leaf stems look to be pretty thick so it could be paulownia tomentosa like posted above. the leaves get gigantic on those and they have thicker green stems on the leaves

Nice tree, welcome to the forum!

I would agree with the Red Bud. The leaves look very similar to a tree I have on my property.

I don’t think that is a redbud. Where in the world are you?

As seen in theone420’s post and here...Redbud typically have slightly acuminate apicies, not sure this tree has this. @Brian Van Fleet, is why you’re thinking not?

 

[TN_Jim]

oops..

 

[Brian Van Fleet]

The bark and branch texture don’t look right. They look too plump, more tropical. Seems the OP has some type of palm or bird of paradise in the background too, and I don’t think the two species are found in many of the same places.

Whatever it is those are some extra large leaves for a foemina.
Do you think they'll reduce some?

Could it be cercis siliquastrum, Judas tree. Very similar to a red bud.

Could it be a Portia tree (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thespesia_populnea) or Sea Hibiscus (http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-mJxYq4G4Y...Q/s1600/15+Sea+hibiscus+tree+blooming+2.jpg)? Location would really help a lot.
