I received a Bonsai Tree as a gift yesterday and thought I would post a pic to help identify it to take specific care of it. Also, if anyone can recommend a good starter tool kit that's affordable I would appreciate it. Any other comments/suggestions are welcomed as I want to take good care of the lil fellow.

You have a Fukien Tea Tree. The leaves are a dead giveaway.
