Brussel's Satsuki Azalea Bonsai - Small (Outdoor) with Humidity Tray & Deco Rock

I would go to my local nursery instead of buying here. This tree came sick, the leaves turning brown within a week. It was all dead within a month. Not buying again.

I have bought this plant 6 times! Needless to say I don’t give up easily. It arrives full of leaves with a couple of blooms. Beautiful tree!! Looks great! First time it died within a week. Each time I seem to keep it alive a little longer but cannot keep it from dying! I have tried everything! This was my last try. I put everything I had into this one. For a moment I thought I was going to make it.I am so very disappointed :(

Arrived in great shape. Securely packaged for shipment. It was blooming when it arrived.

The Azaleas arrived healthy and in excellent condition. They are great for my Bonsai creations. They are easy to grow and I will consider other purchases in the future. However, in spite of their best efforts to package the shipment well, it did not survive the inevitable law of shipping...”If it can be broken, it will”. One of the decorative containers was shattered into many pieces. But no damage was done to the plant. Fortunately I was able to transfer the plant and soil to a training pot of the same size. It will be fine. Those containers are a nice sell but risky.

My plant arrived safely. The plant was wrapped nicely so that dirt did not fly everywhere in the box. I've had the plant for a week now and it looks to be growing. A few leaves have already dropped but I think the plant is trying to adjust to it's new surroundings.I have the plant indoors next to my south-facing window. It gets a little bit of light in the morning and then gets the sunshine from the afternoon sun. It is next to my router so hopefully it won't dry out from the air emitting from the router's vent. I placed a plate with rocks and water underneath it to keep the area humid. I've been watering it every day since it is summer and letting the water run out the holes in the bottom.Since it sits on my work desk, I can investigate it each day to make sure it's not dying or drying out. I see it has 2 buds that have not opened. I'll update again in a month to see if the buds actually flower.Update a month or so later:I updated another picture of the bonsai, a side by side view of when I first got it to now. I have to preface that I am watering the plant almost every day or every other day if I see the humidity plate is low on water. It is summer so the house does get warm and my plant is next to the router on my work desk.Also, I have been collecting the fallen leaves to show the amount of leaves I'm losing. Despite the amount of leaves im losing, I do see that the leaves are growing bigger on my plant. So I think the fallen leaves are just from my plant adjusting to the environment. This is a tree and trees do drop leaves occasionally.My tree does look sparser than the original so I'm not sure if I'm trending in the right direction. But still it does not look bad. Ill leave my rating at 5 stars for now. My plant still looks healthy.Also the buds I had originally have not bloomed. Hoping it's just going through a blooming cycle and won't just die off.

these two trees arrived in such great condition I had to give kudos to this company.The trees were in a special box, with styrofoam on the bottom, with the trees individually wrapped with cellophane around the pots and then wrapped again around the styrofoam. Then they packed it full of styrofoam peanuts up to the top of the box to protect the leaves. Lots of care taken here.The trees themselves arrived in great shape…well watered and full of healthy foliage. And…lots of buds! I expect these will bloom in a couple of weeks in my greenhouse. The trees were potted in what looks to be a nice, proprietary bonsai soil…something similar to the bonsai soil used by most experienced growers.Lastly the pots are very nice…two different styles that are glazed nicely and will fit the trees as shohin bonsai for years to come.Definitely recommend these folks for quality trees. And don’t get sidetracked by negative reviews.

This plant started dying the first week it arrived. It did not matter how much I watered it it was not going to come alive. I decided to look at the roots to see if that was the problem. I couldn't even pull the plant out (notice the picture above). Since when do they ever wire a tree to its pot? They might secure it in there temporarily, but never with hard wire. Notice the other picture, the wires go through the root system. They must have hurt the roots while securing it in this pot. That's why ...they killed it before it even got to me! After finally untwisting the wires, I pulled the dead tree out and you could tell by the root system that they killed it! I tried writing them a letter but never heard back from them.Also, the picture shows a turquoise pot. The pot is green.Extremely disappointed!

Came with no flowers. Plant does not look it good condition. May die in a couple of months. Time will tell.
