Bonsai Carmona

Carmona Bonsai (Fukien Tea Tree) 🌿

Elegant, refined, and full of character, the Carmona Bonsai is a miniature tree with maximum personality. Native to China and Southeast Asia, this bonsai forms small glossy leaves, tiny white flowers, and a beautifully textured trunk, making it one of the most classic indoor bonsai styles.

It’s a little more particular than some of our easier plants, but give it stable light, consistent watering, and a calm corner of your home and it’ll reward you with year-round beauty. Perfect for desks, sideboards, or anyone who appreciates a bit of living art.

Plant Care

Light: Loves bright, indirect light. Avoid harsh direct sun, which can scorch the leaves.
Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist, never bone dry, never waterlogged. Water when the top layer feels slightly dry.
Temperature: Prefers 18–24°C and dislikes sudden temperature drops. Keep away from radiators or draughty windows.
Humidity: Appreciates moderate humidity. Mist occasionally, especially in winter.
Feed: A bonsai-specific fertiliser every 4 weeks during spring and summer helps keep it strong and healthy.

Good to Know

Flowering: Can produce tiny white flowers throughout the year when happy.
Toxicity: Mildly toxic if ingested, keep out of reach of pets and children.
