Shohin Style Dwarf Jade Bonsai Trees, Grown at Our Florida Nursery

At a glance: 16 individual Dwarf Jade bonsai (Portulacaria afra), each in its own ceramic pot. $175 to $225 per tree. 11 to 14 inches tall including the pot, with canopies 9 to 12 inches wide. You choose the exact tree you receive.

Sometimes, windowsill size is the perfect size. These small Dwarf Jade bonsai bring substantial trunks, established branching, and the character of a mature tree to a sunny spot you can enjoy every day.

We started these trees as cuttings at our Florida nursery and have spent the last few years developing their shape. Through repeated pruning, we’ve encouraged finer branching, built fuller canopies, and kept the foliage compact. Creating convincing proportions on a small tree takes patience. Each cut matters when you’re working at this scale.

That careful work gives this collection its appeal. Small, rounded leaves sit above trunks with individual movement and character, while each ceramic pot completes the composition. Their compact, shohin-style proportions make them a natural fit for a bright windowsill with room for the pot, or a small table beside a sunny window.

Two selections, TWEB23277 and TWEB19209, are Frank Yee Cork Bark Dwarf Jades. They offer distinctive, rugged bark texture in a compact tree. You’ll find them marked in the table below.

Dwarf Jade Care at a Glance

• Light: Dwarf Jade needs abundant light. Give it your brightest window, or add a grow light in winter.
• Water: Water thoroughly as the soil approaches dryness, then let the excess drain away. Avoid keeping the soil constantly wet.
• Temperature: Protect from frost. Bring the tree indoors before nights approach 50 to 55°F.
• Pruning: Trim new growth during the growing season to keep the silhouette compact.

Questions We Often Hear

Is Dwarf Jade a good indoor bonsai?
Yes. Dwarf Jade is a tropical succulent that does well indoors in a bright, sunny window. It stores water in its leaves, so it forgives an occasional missed watering better than most bonsai.

Will I get the exact tree in the photos?
Yes. The tree number you select is the tree you’ll receive, in the ceramic pot shown in its photos.

What makes the cork bark trees different?
Frank Yee Cork Bark Dwarf Jade develops a thick, textured bark that gives a small tree an old, rugged look. Trees TWEB23277 and TWEB19209 are this variety.
