A professional-looking, resealable stand-up pouch of Bonsai Thrive 180, a time-release fertilizer specifically formulated for the specialized needs of bonsai trees. 

The packaging design is split vertically. The left side has a clean, textured white background featuring the product name "BONSAI THRIVE 180" in bold, black lettering beneath an orange circular logo of a stylized crane. Below the product name, several key horticultural benefits are listed: "Long-Lasting Nutrient Supply," "Low Risk of Over-Fertilization," "NPK 19-5-9 in Every Granule," and "Improved Root Development." 

The right side of the bag is a deep forest green adorned with delicate, light-green line-art illustrations of leaves and branches. A large, clear, crescent-shaped window on this side reveals the actual fertilizer inside: small, uniform, spherical granules in shades of deep indigo and light blue. 

At the bottom of the pouch are icons for "100% Satisfaction Guaranteed" and a green checkmark indicating the product is "Ready to Use." The weight is listed as Net Wt. 10 oz (280 g). The overall image conveys a high-quality, specialized maintenance product for bonsai enthusiasts.

Rare Cork Bark Jade Pre-Bonsai from the Frank Yee Collection

Big, gnarly, and incredibly corky! We’re releasing just 10 exceptional Cork Bark Jade pre-bonsai from our collection.

We originally acquired these trees from renowned grower Frank Yee six years ago, when they were already mature pre-bonsai. They spent the next several years growing at our Florida nursery before being relocated to Massachusetts in the fall of 2024 for their next stage of development.

Our original plan was to move most of these trees into ceramic bonsai pots next spring. However, with winter boarding in full swing, we need to make some room on our benches. That means an opportunity for 10 customers to get their hands on some truly impressive material.

These are not your typical Jade bonsai. Each tree is over 10 years old, with thick, rugged trunks, incredible corky bark, and plenty of character. They’re mature, established trees with a great foundation for further refinement.

We’ll be offering just 10 individually photographed trees, so you can select the exact Cork Bark Jade you want to bring home.

Whether you decide to move yours into a ceramic pot next spring or continue developing it as pre-bonsai, these are outstanding trees with years of growth already behind them.

Only 10 available. Once they’re gone, they’re gone!

The Tree You Select Is the Tree We Will Ship

This is not a representative-photo listing. Choose a tree by its identification number, and you will receive that exact tree.

Please review the photographs for each numbered option carefully before making your selection. Once a tree is purchased, that numbered option will no longer be available.

Photography Note

These trees were photographed on October 14, 2026. The photographs for each numbered option show the actual Cork Bark Jade for sale at the time of photography.

The density, shape, and color of the foliage will change naturally with pruning, new growth, care, and the seasons.

Shipping Note

Shipping is free. These trees ship from Massachusetts in an 8" plastic nursery pot. Your selected tree will be watered as needed, secured, and packed carefully for shipment. Minor movement of the foliage, soil, or growing medium may occur during transit.

Care Note

Cork Bark Jade appreciates plenty of bright light, good airflow, and regular pruning during active growth. Allow the soil to approach dryness before watering thoroughly. Avoid keeping the soil constantly wet, but do not leave the root system dry for an extended period.

Cork Bark Jade is a tropical species and must be protected from frost and prolonged cold. In colder climates, it should be brought indoors for the winter and placed in the brightest location available. A grow light may be helpful when adequate natural light is unavailable.

We ship thousands of bonsai trees and supplies each year, and every order is packed with care by our team. Live trees are watered, secured, and packaged to help them arrive safely and ready for their new home.

Live bonsai trees generally ship early in the week, Monday and Tuesday, to reduce time in transit. Tools, pots, soil, fertilizer, and other non-living items usually ship throughout the week.

Bonsai Outlet is a licensed nursery, not just a warehouse. We follow the proper inspection and certification requirements for shipping live plants across state lines. When a state requires additional documentation, such as a nematode certificate or nursery inspection certificate, we work to ensure the proper requirements are met before shipping.
