Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I'm extremely satisfied with this purchase. I spent two days going through sites and reading reviews before deciding on which type of bonsai/company I was going to buy from. I also considered price and shipping. Brussel's Bonsai seemed like the best place, and their Fukien Tea seemed like the best bonsai to go with given the lifestyle I have (no yard or outside space to have a bonsai, so it had to be indoor-specific). A lot of the reviews were hit and miss based on condition upon arrival or having it die within the first week/month (though that could be from lack of knowledge on how to properly take care of the Fukien Tea because though it brags of easy care there is still care that needs to be done--just not extensive). So I finally decided to order the Fukien Tea. It was delivered two days earlier than the estimated delivery date and was packed very well to avoid damage and drying out. The shipping company also did a fine job of handling it well (which could also be the cause of damage upon arrival that most people don't realize is the shipping company's fault and NOT the company they bought from). The tree was very hardy and "bushy" and came in a sturdy ceramic container. I gave it a good pruning to show off the shape of the trunk and give it that bonsai look. It's very easy to prune a Fukien Tea into a desired shape, and you can do it all-year-round to help maintain its shape, and requires no new wire-training. I purchased a humidity tray to help maintain good humidity, as that is essential to the Fukien Tea, and an LED grow light to also help promote healthy growth/flowering because even though it's a great indoor tree, it still needs indirect sunlight (direct sunlight outside can actually hurt the tree) and an LED grow light is more beneficial than setting it by a window with fingers crossed. I also purchased a Ganesh figurine from my local Asian gift store for decoration to help create a more "zen" feel. Overall this worked out for me very well with basic knowledge and a little more research. The instructions that came with the tree were very vague, so I definitely recommend reading a few articles on the type of bonsai you're looking to care for to get a better feel of how to keep it thriving.
