I have found that first reviews are rarely helpful to me, the shopper, as my sensitivity to bias is heightened by the “first” review. I picture the seller sitting on his/her friends computer writing the first review for her/his product to get sales going. But I assure you, I am not that guy/girl. But then who that writes a great review is not bias. You have to be when you receive a great product, as is the case here.
So yea, the thing came so well wrapped that it took a while to actually get it out of the box. The soil and pot were wrapped in plastic wrap to prevent spillage and the rest of the box was packed with so many peanuts I am still picking them out of places that I will not mention here.
The tree itself has little green leaves, little white flowers, and little green to yellow then red fruits. The trunk is well formed and perfectly proportioned. Its curvy in all the right places with branch placement in classic bonsai style (found out later). The pot is small and orange and is about as big as my hand. The tree is about eight inches tall and looks like bonsai tree (go figure).
I do not expect that all who read this will get a perfect tree. What is perfect about this tree for me may not be perfect for you. I ordered it under the assumption that all bonsai’s are a work in progress. I took a chance based on the amount of care I was willing to provide it regardless of its condition upon arrival.
I was woefully surprised.
