Michelia is a rare and precious variety of Podocarpus. The leaves are small and beautiful, which is the best material for making small and medium bonsai. At present, it is difficult to find authentic and pure seedlings of P. miyeensis.

But it grows slowly, and cuttings usually grow more than a centimeter thick in about ten years. Because all of the male plants of P. miquefolia are male, most of the flowers degenerate into leaves, which are not easy to blossom and bear fruit, so they can not be propagated by seeds, nor can they be wild.
