I found this hiding in the plant section of my local super market and its totally dried out and the leaves are all withered, Is it savable? Also it said its an indoor bonsai but that doesn't seem quite right to me?

Maybe it was the rosé 🙂
As the previous poster said though, worth a try. I've bought quite a few totally neglected and discarded orchids back from the "dead".
 
Haha nope got that covered 😉 well it is nice and wet so fingers crossed.

It looks like a Chinese Elm, classic garden centre stock ( & condition).
There in no such thing as an indoor tree, trees grow outside in nature.
In this case I would soak the soil & place it in a cool, bright natural light indoor spot (as Lindy said) but get it outside in the spring & keep it outside there after.

Here is one of mine in its winter condition.... it lives outside all year.

Thanks foxfish. I was shocked that it said it was indoor tree as like you say...trees live out doors. I soaked it in a tub of water for an hour then let it drain it currently situated where it will receive late afternoon sun and cone spring it will be going to the garden. I'm glad its going to be OK plus I only paid 2 quid for it 🙂
