Frequently Asked Questions
Tree Replacements
If your tree has perished despite your honest efforts, we will be happy to provide a free small-sized seedling replacement fresh from our nursery (you pay shipping/handling only). Please check out our Tree Replacements page for more information.
Seed Replacements
If your Seed Grow Kit fails to produce a seedling, or if a successfully germinated seedling perishes, we will be glad to send you fresh seed (and helpful growing tips) at absolutely no cost. You can get in touch with us here.
Planting and Growing Instructions
Jonsteen’s Seed Grow Kits each include detailed step-by-step instructions, which lead through the whole germination and growing process, from cold-stratifying to transplanting. Orders of Live Tree Seedlings also include thorough transplanting and care instructions, along with a basic overview of five prevalent bonsai styles.
You can review these resources (and more) at our Growing Instructions page.

Bonsai
Bonsai, the art of creating "miniature trees," is an ancient art form which has been practiced for centuries in both Eastern and Western cultures. In some traditions, bonsai has religious and spiritual meaning. For most, bonsai is primarily a practice in aesthetics and an outlet for creativity and artistic expression. Many of our trees make great candidates for bonsai — you can check out our selection of trees that respond well to this method of cultivation here.
Made in the USA
All of Jonsteen’s products are 100% made in the USA, from the packaging we use to the trees we grow from seed.
