Zanthoxylum piperitum. Bonsai 10 years. Aromatic Pepper Tree, Chinese pepper or Szechuan pepper. The so-called indoor trees are mostly trees from tropical origins, that do not support low temperatures. We must place them indoors, always close to a source of natural light. It is an evergreen tree and has small complex leaves. The back of the leaves are darker in colour than the front. Flowers have 4 or 5 petals and easy fructification.
Location: It is considered an indoor tree due to its tropical origin and it can live indoors all year round. If this is the case it will keep its leaves during the winter, losing them, if kept outdoors, during the winter month. Leaves will sprout again in spring. It is considered a very resilient species.
Watering: Moderate but do not let the compost dry out.
Curiosities: In this species there are male trees (with stamen in its flowers) and female trees (with pistil). Flowers will be different in both plants. To grow fruits you will need to have at least 1 male plant and 1 female plant.
Dimensions in centimetres approx. (width x depth x height): 33 x 28 x 46
Note: The shape and measurements of the bonsais are approximate. The pot is included on the dimensions. The colour and shape of the pot may vary from that of the photo. A bonsai is a living being. The images that appear are non-binding illustrative pictures.

Le mien vient d'arriver chez moi !
Je viens de recevoir mon Poivrier de Chine, emballé avec énormément de soins par MISTRAL BONSAI.
Je lui ai trouvé une place sur ma table de travail, juste face à la fenêtre.
C'est mon premier BONSAI, une aventure commence :-)
