Japanese Zelkova, Starter Bonsai

Grown and trained in Pescadero, California — never imported, never mass-produced Planted and pruned by us in our oval, water-retaining Melmac pot, in our proven Pescadero soil blend Species-specific care card, plus free access to our full care library and YouTube guidance 30-day, no-hassle replacement guarantee — we never ship a tree until it's ready Clippers are not included.
