A Starter Shimpaku Juniper Bonsai Tree - Dwarf Upright Mame Bonsai
A starter Shimpaku juniper in dwarf upright mame form, a tiny pre-bonsai for fans of small, classic Japanese trees.
Price range: $ (Budget)
What we liked
- + Shimpaku is the prized juniper used for many high-end Japanese bonsai
- + Dwarf upright habit suits the mame size class without heavy restyling
- + Small stock is a low-cost way to practice fine foliage pinching
Trade-offs
- - Mame-size trees dry out very quickly and need close watering attention
- - Tiny trunk gives limited material for dramatic bends or deadwood work
