One-of-a-Kind Frank Yee Cork Bark Jade
Textured Dwarf Jade with Aged Bark, Compact Canopy & Strong Bonsai Presence
This Frank Yee Cork Bark Jade is all about character. The trunk shows deep corking, natural movement, and excellent taper, supporting a compact, well-balanced canopy. It’s a refined, finished bonsai that feels mature without being overworked, exactly what collectors look for in a high-quality jade.
Collected directly from Frank Yee’s garden, this tree reflects years of intentional growth and selection. The bark texture is already well established, the branching is readable, and the silhouette is clean from every viewing angle.
Why it stands out:
- Heavy cork bark texture – Deep, rugged bark throughout the trunk and primary branches gives this tree instant age and presence.
- Compact, balanced canopy – Tight branching and controlled growth make this an easy tree to maintain and refine.
- Strong trunk movement & taper – Subtle curves and natural transitions create visual interest without distraction.
- Frank Yee origin – Selected for character, not speed. These trees are grown with long-term bonsai value in mind.
- Display-ready – Finished enough to enjoy immediately, with room for continued refinement.
This is a tree you can live with—easy to enjoy, easy to care for, and rewarding to refine slowly over time.
