Experience the understated elegance of the Fukien Tea Bonsai (Carmona microphylla). Native to the Fujian province of China, this classic indoor bonsai is a favorite for its "ever-blooming" personality and rugged, textured bark that lends it an aged, stately appearance.
A Year-Round Performer
The Fukien Tea is celebrated for its ability to produce delicate beauty regardless of the season.
Eternal Blooms: Features tiny, star-shaped white flowers that can emerge at any time throughout the year, providing a constant touch of brightness.
Colorful Berries: Following the blossoms, small green berries appear, eventually ripening into a vibrant red and darkening as they age.
Lustrous Foliage: The leaves are small, dark green, and incredibly shiny, covered in tiny white hairs that give them a unique, waxy texture.
Ideal for Indoor Life
While many bonsai struggle with the dry air of a home, the Fukien Tea thrives in indoor environments.
Heat Lover: This species flourishes in warm temperatures, making it a perfect companion for your sunniest windowsill or bright office.
Compact Growth: Naturally small foliage and a dense branching habit make it easy to maintain in traditional bonsai shapes.
Resilient Character: A sturdy choice for both beginners and seasoned collectors looking for a reliable, flowering indoor tree.
