Japanese Bonsai Acer atropurpurea is a deciduous Bonsai prized for it's spectacular fiery red five pointed leaves. Native to Japan the elegantly shaped tree looks as though it comes straight from a picture book. This tree is a true delight to the eye. Reasonably hardy, it should be grown outdoors but taken indoors during periods of frost. Please be aware that in autumn/winter your bonsai could arrive without leaves but will re-grow in spring. Comes grown and trained in a glazed ceramic Bonsai planter. Supplied pot can vary in colour.
