Notes
This 8 year-old American elm is special in many ways, grown from the seed of the actual Oklahoma City Survivor Tree. In terms of shaping, this specimen has been split, wired, trimmed and root-pruned/potted for 6 years. It's on its way to becoming an incredible bonsai tree, and is already a living piece of American history.

About Jonsteen's Bonsai Specials

Throughout the year, we set aside especially interesting seedlings from the nursery for transplanting and light shaping in the bonsai style. These are one-of-a-kind specimens β€” what you see pictured here is exactly what you will receive!


Grow the Actual Survivor Tree!

These seedlings were grown with seed collected from the actual Survivor Tree, an amazing 90 year-old American Elm which withstood the 1995 Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building bomb blast and remains steadfast to this day in its original location on the grounds of the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum. With this seedling, you will grow a true descendant of this historical tree β€” a living testament to the spirit of resilience and courage of the Oklahoma City community, the American people, and survivors everywhere.

About Jonsteen's Seedlings

All of our trees are seed-grown at our nursery on California's Redwood Coast, which is inspected monthly and licensed by the California Department of Agriculture. Trees can provide a natural barrier against high winds, temperatures, noise pollution and soil erosion, all while benefiting local air quality, wildlife and property values β€” a Jonsteen seedling will only grow in value and beauty!
