Fun and easy activity to do with my daughter
Such a fun little kit! I’m a total beginner and it was really easy to follow, everything you need is included (the tools are so cute!) and the instructions are super simple. I actually did this with my 3-year-old and it turned into such a sweet activity for us. She loved helping plant the seeds and checking on them every day. Turned into a great homeschooling lesson too. We’re excited to see sprouting already! Definitely recommend if you want something easy, relaxing, and a little different to do!

Great purchase, Just like advertised!
This was a great purchase. Out of the 5 different seeds 4 have already sprouted and are growing strong. The only seed that didn't sprout was the Phoenix, but we are giving it another try with our 'seeds for a rainy day'. The instructions are very clear and easy to follow, packaging is awesome and the tiny tools makes it feel complete. Every step is listed. If you follow the instructions as they are given you will definitely have success in starting to grow your own bonsai. We are now starting the next steps, planting our young sprouts in small bonsai friendly pots to give them some room, which there are also instructions in the book on how to do it.

Great!
I really enjoyed this bonsai starter kit. It comes with everything needed to get started, including different seeds, planting tools, pots, soil discs, and a helpful beginner’s guide. The variety of seeds makes the experience fun and interesting, and the tools are easy to use. The kit is nicely organized and would also make a great gift for anyone interested in plants and bonsai. Overall, I’m very happy with the quality and variety of everything included.

Fun family activity!
I’ve always wanted to try a Bonsai kit for years and years and finally pulled the trigger with this set because of the variety of trees it included. I was shocked that even my “too cool” tween got in on the action and planted her own Flame and Locust tree and she’s been diligently taking care of them each day while they germinate. The process was super easy and the instructions were very clear. I love that the pots are degradable for easy transferring. I thought that was a brilliant feature. The trees just started sprouting, so we can’t wait to finish the rest of the process! Definitely recommend this kit to anybody looking for a fun family or relaxing activity to beat the summer heat!

Not all seeds will germinate.
The box came exactly as pictured and everything was neat and organized. The tools were soooo cute, not made the best quality because the shovel handle came apart but definitely workable (can be fixed with glue). When potting them 3 out of five sprouted so some seeds are good and some weren’t as is stated in the book. They grew in the time frame it said. Sadly I didn't follow instructions and the start died. Luckily it came with an ample amount of seeds so I’m trying again. It also comes with the book and everything pictured to tell you exactly how to grow them. This was the perfect little gift and I would definitely purchase again for someone like me that loves plants!!! The only reason it’s 4 stars is because of the shovel handle falling apart. Otherwise it’s an amazing buy!!!

All in one Kit
I’m really impressed with this bonsai tree kit! It comes with everything you need to get started, including multiple types of seeds, planting supplies, tools, pots, and a beginner’s guide. The kit is packaged really nicely and would make a great gift for anyone who loves plants or wants to try something new. I especially love that it includes multiple varieties, so you get to grow and experiment with different bonsai trees. Overall, a great starter kit and a fun project!

Nothing growing yet.
Edit: lowered my score because the company was more worried about their reputation then the product they sell. So far only 2 stars until something grows. Arrived well packed and with adequate supplies. They do give more seeds but it is not marked as to what they are. It's been about a month and haven't seen anything close to growing. Hopefully soon something will start. I followed all directions and even YouTube'd different techniques. I bought more soil and pots to try more seed in hopes of something to grow.scott: Seller Avergo has a message for you. --- Message from seller Avergo: Thank you for purchasing from our brand, AVERGO, on Amazon.

MacCormack Avergo customer service Nov 24, 2024 3:30 AM Dear Scott, Following the refund we initiated for our bonsai kit a while ago, we are reaching out to ask if there's anything else we can do to ensure your satisfaction. For example, would you like us to send you fresh seeds of various Bonsai trees? I'm asking because what you wrote suggests that our product is extremely poor, which negatively affects its success, especially since it's a new product. Is there anything else we can do to authentically change your perspective? Customer satisfaction is our top priority 🙂 Looking forward to hearing from you soon! Best regards, Yes No Nov 24, 2024 12:52 PM Hello, I appreciate the ongoing concern but like most businesses rely on the customers first experience. I was sent 6 different seeds plus an extra packet. I wrote what was my experience and how your product was. So if 6 varieties of seeds plus extra didn't work, then 100% is extremely poor. I followed every direction and did exactly what was required. If you sent quality product, then I would not have sent a review. I will edit my review to reflect this conversation.

I am in awe
I was a little sceptical because of the comments about some seeds, particular the wisteria not germinating. That was the one I really wanted to work out. But I wondered how many of the comments were from people lacking patience or not following instructions vs how many legit had bad seeds. First, the packaging was beautiful and will last a lifetime for reuse. The instructions were very clear and easy to follow, coming both in booklet form and QR code. I planted 5 of each as per instructions July 25th and within a week germination started and by day 10 most of them were under grow lights. Every single seed germinated, except the wisteria (there’s a happy ending, don’t fear). At about 15-20 days I actually had to cull them all down to 2/3 per pot so the strongest would thrive. They had to come on a road trip for a week too. I wasn’t about to take any chances with them. By August 17th I had to repot to 4 inch pots, separating them all. I only used acadama, pumice, lava rock… and gave them a little fertilizer All but 4 survived the repotting and thrived. I decided to try the spare seeds to see if I could get a wisteria to germinate. I cleaned out the container and found 3 seeds had germinated after all but were growing breach. No idea why. And they were huge! Yay! Turned them right side up, gave them a good soaking spray and now they’re almost as big as the others. You could literally see them grow. The change hour by hour and day after day was remarkable. I decided to repot them again Sept 6th; the soil drainage made me have to water daily. This time they went into their starter homes, bonsai training pots and I used a mix of 3/4 coco core and 1/4 bonsai soil. It’s been two weeks and they’re all happy. Almost too happy. It’s like I have a forest. I would have been happy if even one of each kind survived. I still have so many seeds left but I’d need a bigger house. Can not recommend this purchase enough. I’d give it 10* if I could. If you’re waffling, just put on your patience pants, read the instructions well and give them a try. But make sure you plan ahead for re potting. You’ll likely need to sooner than you might expect.

Muy bello y excelente para comenzar en el arte del bonsai
Me regale este kit para tener un nuevo hobby y poner a prueba mi paciencia así como la dedicación con la naturaleza. A favor: - el kit viene completo con todo lo que necesitas para comenzar - El estuche de madera puede servir como una maceta por si misma - Vienen suficientes semillas para plantar varios arboles - El instructivo es muy bonito, simple, buenas fotografías y sencillo de seguir - Viene con semillas extras por si una variedad completa no germina. En contra. - No todas las semillas germinarán, así que planta varias. En mi caso dos de las variedades germinaron en 1 semana, el resto tardaron 3 semanas mas. - El instructivo es un tanto escueto, ya que no indica la técnica del bonsái ni que hacer una vez que ya germinaron y plantaste en una maceta.
