The privet prefers a bright position, with direct sunlight at least part of the day. While most privet species have to be kept outdoor and might only need some protection against hard frost, the Japanese privet for example is also sold as an indoor tree and should be placed inside the house during the winter.
You will receive the exact same tree as in the photo and care guide is included. With care and a bit of aroha this bonsai will last a life time and will become part of the whanau.
