Care
Carmona bonsai, also known as Fukien tea bonsai, is a popular choice among bonsai enthusiasts due to its delicate white flowers, attractive dark green leaves, and compact size. However, caring for this bonsai requires some effort and attention to detail.
First and foremost, it is important to place the Carmona bonsai in a location with bright, indirect sunlight. Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves and damage the tree, while low light can cause the leaves to fall off. As for temperature, this bonsai prefers warm temperatures between 60-75°F (15-23°C).
Watering
Watering is another crucial aspect of Carmona bonsai care. This bonsai needs to be kept consistently moist but not waterlogged. It is recommended to water the tree thoroughly when the topsoil feels slightly dry, and to avoid letting the tree sit in standing water for too long. Overwatering can lead to root rot and other issues.
Fertilizing
Fertilizing is also important for the health and growth of the Carmona bonsai. It is best to use a balanced fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring to fall) and to reduce or stop fertilizing during the dormant winter period.
Pruning and shaping
Pruning and shaping are essential for maintaining the desired shape and size of the Carmona bonsai. It is recommended to prune the tree regularly to encourage new growth and to remove any dead or damaged branches. Wiring can also be used to shape the tree, but caution must be taken not to damage or break the branches.
Pests and diseases
Pests and diseases can be a concern for the Carmona bonsai. Regularly inspect the tree for signs of insects such as spider mites, aphids, and scale insects, and treat with an appropriate insecticide if necessary. Additionally, keeping the tree in a well-ventilated area and avoiding overwatering can help prevent fungal diseases.
In summary, Carmona bonsai care requires attention to light, water, fertilizer, pruning, and pest/disease prevention. With proper care, this bonsai can be a beautiful and rewarding addition to any collection.

Several months ago, I purchased a bonsai tree that arrived in small but healthy condition. Since then, the tree has continued to thrive and look amazing. In fact, this spring it produced an abundance of beautiful white flowers that are still present. I have already trimmed the branches several times to maintain its shape and health. Overall, I am delighted with this bonsai tree and highly recommend it.

Adam Smith –
I’m pleased with the prompt delivery, as I received the plant on Thursday after placing my order on Tuesday. However, I was disappointed to find the ceramic pot broken upon arrival, likely due to insufficient padding in the box. The lack of a fragile label may have contributed to poor handling during transit. Nonetheless, the plant seems to be in good shape, albeit a few lost leaves during transportation.
Mason Williams –
Although it traveled in a truck for three days, the bonsai tree arrived in Montana after a week, looking gorgeous and blooming. Despite the journey, it’s definitely worth every penny spent!

Kane K. (Verified Buyer) –
The bonsai tree I gave to my significant other has brought her great joy and satisfaction.
Josh (Verified Buyer) –
I would give this Fukien Tea bonsai tree a 5-star rating – I absolutely love it! The tree has been growing rapidly and producing new flowers almost every other day. In my opinion, Prime Bonsai is the best place to buy bonsai trees.
Unfortunately, the package arrived damaged, with the box upside down and torn apart. The tree did sustain some damage as a result, but I do not blame Prime Bonsai for this – it was an issue with the shipping carrier, UPS. After taking care of the tree for a couple of weeks, it has bounced back and is now thriving!
Overall, I highly recommend purchasing bonsai trees from Prime Bonsai and will not consider buying from any other online seller.
Luis S. (Verified Buyer) –
I am the proud owner of five of these plants, and I love each and every one of them. The shipping was speedy, and once you receive it, you’ll cherish it for a lifetime. Who knows, in 20 years, your plant could even be worth $2500. Just something to consider.

Overall, the Fukien Tea Bonsai is a wonderful product that is sure to bring joy and a touch of the outdoors to any space.
Anthony Nguyen (Verified Buyer) –
Upon arrival, the Bonsai tree was in excellent condition – it was packaged very securely, and I was impressed by how healthy it looked compared to other live plants I’ve seen.
A. Lyle (Verified Buyer) –
I would not recommend this bonsai tree for beginners. My husband, who is a novice, received it as a Christmas gift and while the tree itself was in decent condition, the planter was unfortunately cracked upon arrival. After purchasing a new planter and following the instructions as closely as we could, the tree has not been thriving. It has lost most of its leaves and the stems are withering. We are still holding out hope that it will recover, but it is disheartening to have spent so much money only to potentially lose the tree less than a month after receiving it.
