Bring the Tropics into Your Home

Tropical Bonsai are plants which require temperatures of 55 degrees F or above year around.  These plants are considered by some to be the best for beginner bonsai trees due to the fact that many Tropical Bonsai bear flowers and even have fruit.  Tropical Specimen Bonsai have that exotic look that becomes the focal point of any decor.   Some of the more popular Tropical Bonsai are:  The many Ficus varieties, Serrisa, Boxwood, Fukien Tea, Bougainvillea, Eugenia, Bahama Berry, some Chinese Elm varieties, some Azalea varieties and countless others.  Tropical Bonsai require care and maintenance that can be different from the Outdoor Bonsai.  One of our bonsai books will give you the information necessary for successful bonsai.   Even though all Tropical Bonsai are grown outdoors in their native areas, some tropical bonsai enthusiasts keep them indoors all year.   It is, however,  recommended that they enjoy summer out of doors whenever convenient..
