Tropical Trio Beginner Pre-Bonsai Kit (3 Trees + 3 Ceramic Pots)
Think of this as the LEGO-style starter set for bonsai. Three easy, fast-growing tropical trees that let you learn the fun parts quickly: pruning, shaping, and repotting.
You’ll receive three of the most friendly, popular beginner species, sold as pre-bonsai, plus three Japanese ceramic pots to get you started right away. (Pot colors will vary. Our team will choose colors that compliment the trees.)
What’s Included (3 Trees + 3 Ceramic Pots)
1) Dwarf Jade (Portulacaria afra)
- Pot: 4" ceramic pot
- Height: approx. 8"–10"
- Recently trimmed so it ships compact. We’ll stop pruning so you can enjoy the next flush and do the future pruning yourself.
2) Hawaiian Umbrella (Schefflera arboricola, dwarf leaf)
- Pot: 4" grow pot (with included ceramic pot for your next step)
- Height: approx. 8"–10"
- Recently shaped. Then we pause pruning so it can flush out and give you fresh growth to work with.
3) S-Trunk Tiger Bark Ficus (Ficus microcarpa)
- Pot: ceramic pot included
- Height: approx. 10"–14"
- Classic beginner ficus with satisfying trunk movement and fast, reliable growth.
Soil (Sold Separately - On Purpose)
We sell soil separately because many bonsai folks already have their preferred mix. If you don’t, these tropicals will be happy in our All-Purpose Blend or Premium Blend.
Why You’ll Love This Trio
- Beginner-friendly species that forgive small mistakes
- Fast growers—you’ll be pruning sooner than you think
- A hands-on “build it and level up” experience: grow → prune → shape → repot → repeat
- Perfect for bright windows, grow lights, sunrooms, and warm seasons outdoors (when temps allow)
Pot & Photo Note
Photos show example trees & pots. Pot colors and exact styling will vary, and we’ll select trees & ceramics that look great with each tree.
