Appearance characteristics

The Coral Tree Bonsai Starter Tree has a canopy shape that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, resembling an umbrella or an oval. After topping the young seedlings, they will develop into full shrubs with multiple branches. The branches initially appear greenish and are covered with a thin layer of white powder. As they lignify, they gradually turn grayish-brown, becoming rough in texture and with longitudinal shallow cracks. In terms of leaf morphology, it is a typical leguminous trifoliate compound leaf. At the top of a long petiole, three oval-shaped small leaves are arranged in a zigzag pattern. In a potted environment, when a gentle breeze blows, the trifoliate compound leaves sway gently like countless small feather fans.
