- Excellent quality and above Bonsai Shrubs can now be converted to decorative items.
This has finally been addressed in patch 1.24.102
Good Luck

? Bonsai bush?

Bonsai Bush is a gardening plant made by grafting daisy + strawberry and then planting the resulting berry. You are supposed to be able to then turn the full grown bush into one of the decorative ones purchasable under activities (painting easel, telescope, etc)

Ooooh that's interesting to note Haka, sounds like they just forgot to add the higher qualities to the acceptable list.

Magnificent isn't good enough either. All my sim's fruit is magnifient or better so no hope of planting the inferior excellent quality plant.
Here are screenshots to illustrate problem.

The only workaround I can see is to graft inferior quality daisy and strawberry plants to get inferior quality bonsai buds. Plant them. Once the shrub reaches excellent don't evolve it further. That's a whole lot of work for a gardener whose plants have all evolved past Excellent.
