Mame Juniper bonsai (Juniperus chinensis Kishu)
This Mame Juniper bonsai is a Juniperus chinensis of the Kishu variety, grown at mame scale, and it is sold with the small pot shown in the photographs. The specimen stands about 10 cm tall measured from the soil and around 15 cm across the foliage, on a trunk of roughly 5 cm. The pictures were taken in April 2026 and show the exact tree on offer.
Kishu is one of the prized cultivars of Chinese juniper, valued for its dense, fine foliage that sits tight to the branch and holds a deep green through the year. On a tree this size the needles are scaled down to suit the miniature form, so the canopy reads as a compact pad of greenery above a short, worked trunk. The pot is a small ceramic container measuring 6 x 12 x 12 cm, included as part of the planting.
The juniper in bonsai
Junipers are among the most worked species in Japanese bonsai, prized for the way the living vein and the foliage can be shaped over years. The Kishu cultivar earned its place through that tight, soft foliage, which suits the close detail a mame tree demands. At this scale the whole composition can sit in the palm of a hand.
