Carmona microphylla is native to Asia and positively thrives in warm conditions. The Fukien Tea Tree makes a most attractive Bonsai that is well suited to indoor conditions. Small, glossy leaves crown the trunk which becomes attractively gnarled with maturity. At any time throughout the year, a display of tiny white blooms may appear, followed by red berries which darken with age.  Height and spread: 30cm (12").

Height Up to 30cm (12in)
Spread Up to 30cm (12in)

These Bonsai Trees are best grown in a bright position indoors, away from the direct glare of strong sunlight. Avoid positions that are close to radiators and doorways where they will be affected by cold draughts. Generally, these trees will prefer a cool room such as a spare bedroom, home office or conservatory. In summer, they may be gradually acclimatised to outdoor conditions, and subsequently moved onto the patio if you prefer. Be sure to re-acclimatise them to indoor conditions again in early autumn, so that they can be kept frost free indoors during winter.

Please note: These trees have been carefully trained to create perfect miniatures of their full size siblings. Although many of the species used are perfectly hardy in the UK, these tiny trees are more susceptible to winter damage, given their size and the small volume of soil surrounding their roots. Therefore they are best protected from frost and cold winter weather by moving them to a cool, bright spot in the home or greenhouse.
