  • A detailed, close-up photograph of a handcrafted ceramic bonsai decoration featuring two Chinese "mud men" figurines. 

The two figures are mounted on a single, vibrant lime-green base shaped like a large, textured leaf with visible ribbing. On the left, an elderly man stands wearing a long, unglazed tan robe with dark blue-grey trim at the sleeves and collar. He has striking white hair pulled back into a small bun and a long, white mustache and beard. He holds a large, white folding fan across his chest. 

To the right, a second man sits cross-legged on the leaf base. He wears a similar tan robe and has dark hair and eyebrows with a gentle, smiling expression. He holds an open white book or scroll in his lap, appearing to be reading aloud or engaging in conversation with the standing man. 

The figurines are rendered in a traditional folk-art style with simple yet expressive features, characteristic of "mud men" used to add a sense of scale and storytelling to penjing or bonsai displays. The background is dark and out of focus, highlighting the earthy textures of the clay.

  • Direct From Japan
    A vertically oriented wall calendar hangs against a plain, light-gray wall. The calendar is spiral-bound at the top and showcases a large, high-resolution photograph of a mature pine bonsai tree. The bonsai features a thick, gnarled trunk and a broad canopy of vibrant green needles, planted in a low, rectangular grey ceramic pot. The background of the photograph is a soft, warm peach color. 

Below the image, the calendar displays the monthly grids for March and April for the year 2026. "3 March" is on the left and "4 April" is on the right, with their respective dates neatly laid out in a mix of black and red fonts. Between the two months, Japanese characters and the year "2026" are elegantly placed. At the bottom of the page, the name "New England Bonsai Gardens" is printed in bold black lettering, followed by their physical address in Bellingham, MA, and their website URL, www.NEBonsai.com. Soft, diagonal shadows are cast across the wall to the left of the calendar, suggesting a nearby window or light source.

Contrary to popular belief, Bonsai Gardening isn’t difficult. Some trees are more less difficult than others, but there’s nothing to be intimated by.

We usually respond to this by telling people that it is possible to kill anything, but given that, here are a few helpful facts: If you are just starting out and planning on keeping your bonsai inside most of the time you need a tropical tree. A succulent, like Mini Jade is good to start with. Other good varieties include Arboricola, Brazilian Rain Tree and Chinese elm.

Unfortunately it is impossible to list the symptoms of either in a concise manner.

Very generally speaking, if the roots collapse from lack of water you are likely to see a ‘freeze dried’ look to the leaves or needles. This will happen quite soon after the roots get too dry. Usually within a day or matter of a few days.

Over watering usually takes longer and results in a slower decline but both should be avoided.

Trust your instincts and review your habits, and remember, trees are trees and will grow leaves and drop leaves ( or needles) naturally, so some seasonal dropping of foliage is normal.

No, you will need to transplant it. Usually every one to three years is the norm.
