Identification: Bonsai Identification (white bark with black spots, oval waxy leaves)

I bought this bonsai this afternoon, but the person selling me it didn't exactly know what it was. I would love some identification of it :) thank you.

Your bonsai plant is a Fukien Tea Tree, Carmona retusa.

 

Ah, so it is :) Thank you very much

 

You're very welcome. I have one too - it's about 12 years old and about 10 inches tall. A couple of tips: the Fukien tea doesn't like cold temperatures, even for a few minutes, which will make the leaves turn brown and drop. The good news is that the leaves will usually grow back.

And if the leaves start to turn yellow, a very small amount of liquid iron diluted with water will help them green up again. I use diluted liquid iron no more than once a year at a strength of about half of what the bottle recommends.
