    Hi!

    I recently purchased a bonsai, labelled "Bonsai Mix". I am sure that this is not it's proper name.

    Can you help??

    If you can, please could you give me some helpful care tips!

    Thanks

    It looks like an Elm (Ulmus), probabbly Ulmus parvifolia.

    I was sure someone would have id your bonsai by now. I have tried very hard to pin it down ....with no luck. Judging by the texture of the leaves they appear to be evergreen. Also they look as if they have glands on the leaf edge. By posting this it will bump it back to the top for you!
