Bonsai as a gift, need to ID was created by Treed

Posted 9 years 9 months ago #18550
Hi there,

My girlfriend decided to buy me a tree she saw in a shop, as she knows I've wanted a bonsai for a while now. But there was nothing to identify it, so I'm unsure how to look after it properly.

Can anyone help identify it?

Thanks

Leftovers from christmas, people always seem to get me whiskey.

An ideas for the actual tree? I looked at the identifier page but couldn't really narrow it down.

Almost finished mine - both highland single malts, (a Dalmore and an Aberfeldy )

When I see a tree with leaves, trunk colour and roots like that, that I don't recognize, I always say it is a Serissa.

Note I wrote I do not recognize it, so this may be totally wrong. If it is a Serissa, that's not an easy plant.
