 Looks good, not great April 4, 2008
This is my first bonsai. I will try to update this review periodically with more information.
The plant arrived in good condition and well watered. Mine does not look like the picture. It is definitely a lot more sparse and less "natural" looking. I'm hoping that some pruning will fix that over time. It also lost a few leaves on the first day, but seems to have really come alive after being watered and given sunlight. I'm sure 3 days in a box can't be too healthy for it.
As other reviewers have mentioned, there are two holes at the bottom of the pot, so you'll need to figure out a way to deal with the water which leaks out.
Update 9/23/2008: I would bump this review up to 4 stars, but Amazon won't let me. The plant still hasn't filled out much more and still does not look as good as the picture, but it has remained remarkably healthy with very little effort. I've kept it at my desk at work where it receives little if any sunlight. Watering it twice a week and occasionally moving it near a window for a weekend has kept it very healthy and green. I've received lots of positive comments from co-workers.
Bonsai Jade Tree w/Blue Pot March 11, 2008

I loved the customer service I was given by Amazon but I was upset with the details of this gift that I bought my daughter. I know pictures don't always match what is sent and it was very true in this case. I expected the pot that was in the picture. My daughter sent me pictures and the pot was different. If they had told me that there was a possibility of a different pot I think I wouldn't have ordered it because it was a combination of the pot and the plant that I liked. Maybe I'm being picky but I expected a pretty blue pot that had design depth to it instead of the blue/black square dish that my daughter received.

Tree arrived in decent condition, but quickly started to drop leaves. All instructions followed and even bought care book. I see the good reviews here, but I would not roll the dice again! Worst purchase I've made on Amazon.
Nice plant but no tray February 9, 2008
The bonsai is a nice plant, and it did arrive in good condition and with instructions on how to care for it. My only complaint is the lack of a tray, and since the pot has holes in it you will need one. Shame, as if they included one this would be a lovely gift, but without it was a little disappointed.
 Tough Little Tree! December 7, 2007

What an awesome tree! I forgot to give a c/o in the mailing address, since it was delivered to my place of employment, so it was in transit for an extended period of time. I had heard that these trees were extremely fragile and susceptible to climate extremes, but this little guy was in the cold quite awhile awaiting delivery in New Hampshire in November and it came through unscathed! A beautiful tree and very healthy upon delivery. The leaves were a lush green color with no spots or marring on them. I am very pleased.
