Hello! I bought a bonsai tree and want to really get into it. I bought this at a big box store so they dont know what it is! Thank you in advance!

Welcome to the site! That's a Fukien Tea!

Please put your general location in your member profile so people know what kind of advice to give you. For example, Fukien Teas are full tropical... so our advice would differ based on whether you lived in Miami or Boston!!

Tip for others in the future: when the tree has some notched leaves and some that are not notched (plain rounded leaves), it's a Fukien tea. This is a feature you can see in even very poor and blurry photographs.

It's not just a normal Fukien Tea either! It's a Fukien Tea in a Ford!

That's probably the first car bonsai ever posted to this site!!!

I was really curious about the different leaves, that's really good to know!

I live in Canada so apparently its really hard to keep a Fukien Tea in our climate from what I've read but I'll be trying my best.

Thank you all!
