This one-of-a-kind tree stands apart from the rest. What you see in the photos are what you get, and there will never be another one like it.
I’m Jasper the Japanese Garden Juniper, native to Japan. I'm a dwarfed slow-growing Juniper variety with spiny-pointed blue-green to gray-green needles. Junipers have the distinction of being the most popular common bonsai right now for our bushy compact look and natural droop. I do best in a full-sun location.
Water me well by placing my pot in a bowl of water up to the rim for 5-10 minutes, about once every 2-4 days, or whenever my pot feels 1/2 lighter. Monitor me in the hotter months as you may need to water more often. As an evergreen conifer I stay green all year, so you can enjoy my color even on the coldest days.
Remember, I am an outdoor plant. I only like to be indoors for a meet-and-greet, but then go back outside. In winter, put me in a protected spot outside, away from extreme windchill, where I can go dormant and feel rested come springtime. I'm hardy in temps down to the single digits.
