Help with ID? I just got this plant as a gift today, (from someone who got it from someone else) and the name of it has been lost lol Greg thinks it’s Asian bittersweet but I am unsure. Open to other ideas and suggestions as to what it is, it came with a bonsai care book so we’ll see how caring for it goes 😂 #WhatPlantIsThis #PlantID #Bonsai (edited to add the plant lol)
