Hi guys, I bought a bonsai tree today and I would like to learn the species of the tree in order to look after it better. I'd appreciate If you guys can help with this. I made some digging on the site and the tree looks like magnolia but I'm not sure. It has evergreen, shiny and firm leaves and also white flower blooms.

I would say some kind of buxus, maybe microphyllia.

Yup, buxus (Or boxwood). I would put my bets on B. Harlandii
