I bought this miniature jade bonsai tree. Here on this page is information about them and I will keep you updated on this tree.

The Miniature Jade ( official name: Portulacaria Afra) Is a tropical succulent. This means that it stores water in its leaves. And that gives us some benefits as a beginner bonsai grower. It is a durable plant and can tolerate erratic watering. It is also well suited as an indoor tree. It also grows quickly so it is a naturally good specimen for shaping as a bonsai.

If you are new to bonsai this is a good choice if you want an indoor tree.

Brussel's Jade Bonsai

The Dwarf Jade is one of the easiest indoor bonsai to grow and is recommended for beginners. Small, rounded, fleshy leaves contrast nicely with straight, substantial trunks. Dwarf Jade trees adapt well to a variety of light conditions and can manage without water for long periods. These trees grow quickly so no long waits are required to observe the results of styling efforts. The plant will end up frozen when exposed to extreme cold temperatures
