Who am I?

Phoenix, AZ

I was trolling the Walmart garden center for more fallen plant pieces (no luck) when I found this cool Bonsai. Of course there was no tag. The flowers are a little larger than 1/4 inch. Any ideas?

I don't know, but your WM seems to have much cooler plants than the ones by my house.

Do the flowers have a smell? The leaf makes me think of one of the jasmine, smaller blooms because it is a bonsai? Did they have anymore???? Me want!

No fragrance. After digging through the internet it appears to be a tea tree.

They were only $11.88 so I won't feel too bad it I kill it. The Ficus bonsai I have purchased from Walmart do wonderfully in a south eastern window. I've had them for years.

So you got the only one? Where is your Walmart, it is much better than the ones around here!

There were 3-4. 19th ave and Bell rd. They get them every so often.

Tea tree smells very, very strong. I think ficus varieties are the most common Bonsai.

You're right, its a Fukien. Weird, but quite cool.
