Flowering Bonsai Gift Set – Cherry Blossom & Chinese Blush Bonsai
Two Beautiful Flowering Bonsai with Seasonal Colour
This flowering bonsai gift set brings together two striking trees that provide colour and interest through different seasons. The set includes a Cherry Blossom bonsai and a Chinese Blush Tree bonsai, each carefully trained to develop attractive structure and healthy foliage.
Together they create a wonderful contrast. The Cherry Blossom offers delicate spring flowers and seasonal colour outdoors, while the Chinese Blush Tree provides vibrant foliage and bright pink blooms during the warmer months. Both trees arrive planted in classic navy blue ceramic bonsai pots, creating a coordinated and elegant presentation.
Seasonal Interest from Two Unique Flowering Bonsai
The Cherry Blossom bonsai (Prunus incisa ‘Kojo-no-mai’), sometimes known as the “Flight of the Butterfly” tree, is a hardy outdoor deciduous bonsai. In early spring it produces delicate flowers in soft shades of pink and white. As the season progresses, small ornamental cherry fruits may appear, followed by lush green foliage. During autumn the leaves transform into vibrant tones of red, orange, and gold before falling to reveal the elegant winter branch structure.
The Chinese Blush Tree bonsai (Loropetalum rubrum), also known as the Chinese Fringe Flower, offers a completely different display. This bonsai features deep purple foliage and striking hot pink flowers that appear during the warmer months. Its informal upright trunk and colourful canopy make it a lively and distinctive flowering bonsai. This bonsai can be grown in a very cool room, or outdoors with protection during winter.
What’s Included
This flowering bonsai set includes two individual bonsai trees: a Cherry Blossom bonsai and a Chinese Blush Tree bonsai. Each tree arrives planted in a navy blue glazed ceramic bonsai pot.
Drip trays are not included as standard with this set, but you can add one separately if required – choose between plastic(small size) or ceramic(standard size). Because every bonsai is individually grown and shaped, natural variation should be expected. The exact branching and form may differ slightly from the photographs shown.
Symbolism and Why Flowering Bonsai Make Wonderful Gifts
Flowering bonsai are often chosen as gifts because they represent beauty, growth, and the changing seasons. The Cherry Blossom bonsai symbolises renewal and appreciation, while the Chinese Blush Tree represents vitality and joy through its vibrant foliage and flowers.
Giving a flowering bonsai set offers something far more lasting than traditional flowers. Instead of fading after a few days, these living trees continue to grow and develop year after year.
Why Buy from Bonsai Direct
At Bonsai Direct, our experienced growers carefully cultivate each bonsai to maintain healthy growth and natural character. Rather than mass-producing plants, we focus on well-developed trees that will thrive in their new homes.
Every bonsai is carefully packaged for safe delivery, and we include clear care instructions to help you look after your trees with confidence. Thousands of customers across the UK trust Bonsai Direct for quality bonsai and expert advice.
Please note: We grow our cherry blossom bonsai trees outside and they are a deciduous bonsai species. They should be grown outdoors as they are fully hardy. They are early Spring flowerers, so you should see new buds in February/March. When out of leaf they still exhibit a lovely structure. From spring budding you get wondrous soft pink/white blossom, followed by lush lime green leaves. During autumn you get cherry fruits and spectacular autumn red and golden hues.
