The flaky juniper bonsai tree is rather small and will rarely reach over 30 feet high. As bonsai trees grow in the wild, they do tend to be much bigger than what you see at homes and private gardens, though. The leaves on the flaky plant are broad needles and take on a blue-green hue.

Eastern Juniper Bonsai Tree

Another very common variety of bonsai would be the Eastern juniper bonsai tree, which is native to North America. Found in mostly southeastern Canada to all the way down by the Gulf of Mexico, this tree is known for its dense foliage that refuses to grow when planted in poor soil. While it is certainly possible for this tree to grow in poor soil, it will end up being little more than a small bush. In good soil, you can see this tree climb all the way up to 15 feet tall.

The Eastern variety has dark red bark that will strip off in neat, narrow strips and two different types of leaves. The first types are sharp and spreading needles that are usually around half an inch long. The second type of leaves is the adult leaf, which look much more like scales and are less than half an inch long.

Once you start to make your way to the western half of the continent, the Eastern juniper bonsai tree gets replaced with the Rocky Mountain juniper bonsai tree or the Ashe juniper bonsai tree.

The Eastern juniper bonsai tree was placed on the IUCN' s list of threatened species back in 1996. While it only holds the category of  Least concern (LR/lc) , it still is a species of tree that is being watched for future decrease and need for repopulation within the United States and Canada.
