Rare Red Flowering Chojubai with Incredible Exposed Roots
This is the exact Red Flowering Chojubai you will receive.
Chojubai are slow-growing, highly sought-after bonsai subjects, and this one has the kind of exposed root character that makes a small tree feel far older and more important. The roots rise and twist at the base with a rugged, natural look, giving the tree immediate personality even before it comes into flower.
This is a red flowering variety, prized for its compact growth, fine structure, and seasonal bloom. Chojubai are not fast trees. They reward patience, careful work, and long-term development, which is exactly what makes a healthy specimen like this so appealing.
At 6" tall from soil to apex with a 5.5" spread, this is a compact but visually powerful tree. It is planted in a 6" Tokoname grow pot, giving the roots and structure room for continued development. Photographed June 26, this tree is incredibly healthy and should be grown outdoors.

- Incredible Exposed Roots: The root base is the standout feature, with rugged texture and mature visual character.

About This Tree
This Chojubai is small, rare, and full of character. The exposed roots give the tree an aged, collected feel, while the compact canopy and healthy new growth make it a strong candidate for continued refinement.
Red flowering Chojubai are especially valued because they develop slowly and can become exceptional bonsai over time. This tree already has the most important starting point: a memorable base with roots worth building around.
Care Notes
Chojubai should be grown outdoors. Provide good sun, seasonal airflow, and consistent watering. Protect the pot and roots during harsh winter conditions, but allow the tree to experience normal seasonal dormancy.
