Fukien Tea bonsai care

This is a living Fukien Tea (Carmona retusa). Before you buy, this is what it will ask of you:

Indoor / outdoor: Indoor in any climate with frost; summer-only outdoors when warm
Light: Very bright; needs maximum light but protect from harsh midday scorch indoors behind glass
Water: Evenly moist: neither soggy nor bone-dry. Narrow margin for error
USDA zones: 10 to 11 outdoors year-round; indoor everywhere else
#1 cause of death: Watering mistakes (root rot from overwatering, or shriveling from drying out), worsened by low light and dry indoor air

Soil, repotting, pruning, seasonal work and the full pest and disease list are in our free Fukien Tea bonsai care guide.
