Misleading description, but nice plant.,

This review is from: Brussel's Golden Gate Ficus Bonsai (Lawn & Patio)
The first tree I ordered was badly scarred by wires. The company replaced it quickly with a very nice tree that had a great shape. The ficus is great if you have little natural light. My apartment is very dark and the tree did fine off of the artificial light. That said, this is NOT a tree for beginners. Ficus are notoriously finicky. They like regular water and the same light conditions day after day. Each time you vary the routiine significantly, it will drop all of its leaves. Moreover, this plant was hard to water. The pot doesn't have enough room for the water to soak in, so I had to use a spray bottle and lots of patience. It needs to be watered daily.
In short: good choice if you just don't have any good light, bad, bad choice for a first Bonsai or if you are forgetful or travel.

WOW !!!!,
By McBud (Northern Hemisphere) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Brussel's Golden Gate Ficus Bonsai (Lawn & Patio)
First ...I ordered this tree and saw that it was shipping from a warm place to where I am with 6 inches of snow on the ground. It arrived within a few days, packed very securely, in great shape ready to go.
Secondly ... It was an early Christmas present, by a few weeks. There was concer with the 'WILL IT SURVIVE UNTIL CHRISTMAS' factor ... WOW ... this little tree with a few leaves on it, is going gang-busters. There's a ton of new branches, not just leaves. It looks incredible. Third ... This is a gift that my whole family is enjoying. It's a little 'miracle' that we are monitoring closely everyday. Thank you ... We'll be ordering more. You have created a bonsai aficionado. Bonzai with the bonsai! Merry Christmas.

I orderded my first bonsai plant ever in my entire life online and I have to say I was rather onedge as to how it would arrive or be packed.
Well I live in the Great Northwest where it is plenty cold and my plant arived at my place of work and was placed in my wharehouse by UPS and it was there for a day before I arrived back to work. Never the less it arrived in perfect health and was packaged very well indeed and I was impressed to say the least. I think this bonsai is absolutley fantastic and I give a five star thumbs up to buussel's and amazon for a terrific product. In fact I loved it so much that I just now placed my second order for another plant on this 8th day of January 2006 and I have no doubts that it will be just as nice if not better than the first. I would highly recommend this product and I will continue to order more for my own personal collection I'm absolutley that impressed. Thanks to all invloved. Harold Yearout
