**SHIPPED IN A WOODEN BOX FOR SAFETY AND PEACE OF MIND.** **Note:** The wooden display table and scroll are shown for presentation purposes only and are not included in the sale. Depending on the season, the plant may not be in flower bloom at the time of delivery. This is an azalea, grown as a flowering bonsai with a weathered, driftwood-like trunk that gives it presence even without bloom. Azalea is one of the most popular flowering species for bonsai, prized for the way a mature trunk can look wind-worn and ancient while the branches still carry soft, glossy foliage. In season, azalea bonsai flower in dense clusters that can cover the whole canopy for a few weeks, then settle back into quiet green for the rest of the year. This piece is currently out of bloom in the photos, so what you see is the tree's structure: trunk, branching and foliage.
