  5. Broadleaf Evergreen Bonsai Trees

Broadleaf Evergreen Bonsai Trees

Broadleaf evergreens keep their foliage year-round like conifers, but with broad leaves instead of needles. Ficus, olive, and podocarpus fall into this category. They offer the consistency of evergreen foliage with more variety in leaf shape, texture, and sometimes flowers or fruit.
