First Bonsai - Identification Help Pls ?

Hello all! Tonight I seen this little tree at Walmart and decided to pick it up. Obviously I know nothing about Bonsai except the limited information which was on the tag. This tree was just labeled as "bonsai." I have been doing a little reading and image viewing and it looks like a cherry. However what do I really know, I am new to all of this. I'd appreciate it if you'd take a look at the pictures and ID for me, and possible help with some general care tips. Or point me in the direction to where I can find general care information. Thanks in advance!

I think you have a Brush Cherry (Eugenia) based on your pictures. If they were a tad clearer, I would say definitely. An acid loving plant, so feed it (if it truely is a brush cherry) miracid or some other acidic fert. This one flowers and will fruit. here is link for ya
