Bonsai has died
Bonsai has died, tried all sorts to keep it going from advice, the free sapling is still going strong. such a shame.

Odpowiedź od Bonsai Direct
Hi Dean,
We are very sorry to hear your bonsai has sadly not survived. We do appreciate how disappointing that can be.
From our previous conversations, we understand the bonsai was being kept in the kitchen. Unfortunately, kitchens are often one of the more difficult environments for bonsai due to fluctuating temperatures, steam, cooking heat, drafts, and lower light levels, which can place the tree under stress over time.
The free sapling remaining healthy is encouraging, although saplings generally require quite different care conditions and are often more adaptable than mature bonsai trees.
We genuinely did try our very best to help with aftercare advice and troubleshooting throughout, and we are sorry the tree could not be recovered in this instance. Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback, and we do hope your sapling continues to thrive.
We hope you will continue to exploring the world of bonsai.
Kind regards,
Bonsai Direct
OUTSTANDING SERVICE
I have been dealing with Bonsai Direct since 2013. I have had both my successes and failures; sadly, all the trees I bought in the early days died.
However, I have learned from my mistakes.
In 2019 I bought a Jade Bonsai. She is still alive today; although she is shedding a lot of leaves at the moment. Bonsai Direct have told me that she is "leggy", and have returned one of my pictures with lines drawn on it to show where I should prune, as I have never pruned before, and am quite nervous about it.
Bonsai Direct are a truly ethical company. They care about the trees which they sell, and treat them as living things rather than a commodity.
They are always on hand to help after purchase; your relationship with them doesn't end when you have paid for the tree.
Ordering is (too!!!!) easy!
Delivery is excellent; the trees always arrive well packed and well hydrated, wrapped around with bubble-wrap to keep them upright.
The quality of the trees ordered is excellent; they always arrive in the peak of good health. Sadly, it takes some of us one or two attempts to get it right and keep the tree alive. 😢
I would highly recommend Bonsai Direct. They grow their own trees. Your relationship with them doesn't end the moment the tree is paid for and delivered; if there is a problem they will always offer advice post purchase.
Five star trees, and five star service from truly knowledgeable and caring individuals!
Well done!

Thank you so much for your incredibly thoughtful and heartfelt review, Heidi.
It truly means a great deal to us that you have continued your bonsai journey with us since 2013. Bonsai is very much a learning experience, and we completely understand that there can be both successes and setbacks along the way. We are delighted to hear that your Jade Bonsai is still thriving after all these years, and we’re very pleased we could help guide you through the next stage of its care and pruning.
Your kind words about our approach to bonsai and customer care are deeply appreciated. We genuinely care about every tree we grow and every customer who trusts us with their bonsai journey, so it means a lot to know that this comes across in the service we provide.
Thank you also for recognising the care we take with packaging, delivery, and ongoing aftercare support. We always want our customers to feel supported long after their bonsai arrives.
Reviews like yours make all the hard work worthwhile for our small family-run team, and we cannot thank you enough for your continued support and recommendation.

My partner has wanted a bonsai for ages so thought I’d treat him to one for his birthday. Found bonsai direct and thought the range of starter kits was great, so ordered one of those. Given that I ordered it on a Friday before a bank holiday weekend, I knew it wouldn’t likely come til the Tue, but it arrived Saturday afternoon! My partner loves it, he’s now called Bonzo!

The 12 year old Bonsai tree I purchased…
The 12 year old Bonsai tree I purchased was indeed a wonderful tree. But sadly, the pot shown on their website was not the one that was delivered with the tree. The pot the tree came in was 18x12cm, and not 19x14cm as advertised, plus it was of a plain navy blue straight sided design.

Hi Stephen,
Thank you for your review and for bringing this to our attention via email a few days ago.
We’re very pleased to hear that you love your bonsai and found it to be a wonderful tree. However, we completely understand your disappointment regarding the pot variation and sizing differences compared to the original listing photos and description.
We sincerely apologise that the expectation of variation was not made clear enough on this particular product listing at the time of purchase. Thanks to your feedback, we have now updated the product information to better explain that bonsai / pots for our "generic" range may vary slightly in style and dimensions between individual (premium range) bonsai trees.
As discussed, we were also happy to provide a partial refund to reflect this issue, and we really appreciate your understanding throughout.
Thank you again for your honest feedback, it helps us improve both our listings and overall customer experience. We hope you continue to enjoy your bonsai for many years to come.

Ordered a bonsai pot and drip tray
Ordered a bonsai pot and drip tray. Both are really poor quality. For £40 you've sold me a bonsai pot no thicker than slate. It's as light as a feather. Send me details of how to send this back to you. No use to me. I will not be buying anything from here again.
Updated
There's absolutely no suggestion of details you have gone into in these emails you keep sending me. Within the space of 15 minutes I've had 3 emails asking me to review the pot so there it is.
To suggest the images, in your emails to myself, have cracks in the pots are obscene. You clearly fail to mention that these pots are featherweight in design yet I've provided you with an image of what a bonsai pot requirements should be and was completely dismissed. Furthermore, I won't be taking the review down. I have purchased another pot from a reputable seller for half the price and is far superior in quality. This is to warn future buyers of a potential purchase.
I also neglected to mention. If your firing process is constructed in such a refined and professional manner. Why does my pot, purchased from yourselves, have jagged razor like points on the edges? Photos sent.
Updated again.
5 updates?. As if I have time to argue with your mundane comments.
You won't respond to the images I sent you of razor sharp fragments on the pot you sold me. Just comments on this review asking me to take my review down.
You have no idea of the material used nor firing process. You've admitted this as you've stated you source your products from elsewhere.
Updated
No response.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear you’re disappointed with your order.
We did respond when you reached out, requesting photos so we could take a closer look, but you haven't included these in your response. We have since requested photos again but we haven’t received a response yet. If you’re able to send these over, it would really help us assess the situation properly.
That said, the pot supplied is a premium bonsai pot, and they are intentionally made to be relatively thin but they are of excellent quality. This is standard in bonsai cultivation, allowing for proper drainage, root health and balance. We’ve been growing and supplying bonsai commercially for many years using these exact types of pots - we have never had a complaint about them or had an issue using them ourselves.
Of course, if the item isn’t suitable for your needs, we’re more than happy to accept your return. We’ll provide full return instructions upon your response.
We appreciate your feedback and hope we can resolve this for you.
Kind regards,
Bonsai Direct.
Update from having seen the images:
Thank you for your further feedback. Having now seen the bonsai pots you were previously using, we believe there may simply have been a misunderstanding regarding the style and quality of the pot supplied.
The pots you had before were a thicker, more standard chunky style of bonsai pot. These were standard pots. In contrast, the pot and matching drip tray we supplied are a more refined, higher-grade ceramic bonsai pot designed in a traditional style. Premium bonsai ceramics are often made thinner and lighter intentionally, as this reflects a higher quality finish and craftsmanship rather than lower quality.
A good comparison would be ceramic mugs or plates — finer, thinner ceramics are generally considered more premium and are often more expensive than thicker, heavier alternatives. The same applies to quality bonsai pottery.
We have used and supplied these pots for many years within our own bonsai nursery and have found them to be excellent quality both aesthetically and practically for bonsai cultivation.
Of course, we completely understand that personal preference plays a part, and if the style was not what you expected, you are welcome to return it. The pot received is exactly as per the photograph.
We would kindly ask if you would consider updating or removing your review, as we genuinely feel this situation stems from a misunderstanding about the type and quality of traditional bonsai ceramics supplied.
Kind regards,
Bonsai Direct
Update
Thank you for your feedback.
The review request emails are sent automatically by our system and are generated per item ordered.
Please also note that we do not manufacture the pots or trays ourselves. We purchase them from a reputable UK wholesaler, and our pricing reflects the cost we paid for the products. As mentioned previously, you are very welcome to return the pot together with the supplied accessories for a full refund if you remain unhappy with the item.
Kind regards,
The Bonsai Direct Team
