Description
Serissa Bonsai Tree – 12-Year-Old Tree of a Thousand Stars
A Mature Flowering Bonsai with Elegant Detail
The Serissa bonsai tree, often called the Tree of a Thousand Stars or Snowrose, offers refined structure and delicate seasonal beauty. This 12-year-old bonsai shows maturity in both trunk and branching, creating a balanced and elegant silhouette. We pot the tree in a navy blue glazed ceramic pot, which enhances the richness of its foliage and bark. A dark-coloured drip tray completes the presentation and protects surfaces.
This mature bonsai brings presence without overpowering a space, making it ideal for bright indoor settings.
The Serissa – Fine Foliage and Star-Like Summer Flowers
Serissa foetida is known for its creamy, textured bark and small pointed leaves that form a compact canopy. As the weather warms, it produces delicate white star-shaped flowers across the branches. These blooms give the tree its “Tree of a Thousand Stars” name and add striking seasonal interest.
At 12 years old, the trunk shows attractive character and established structure. The fine foliage allows for precise shaping, which makes it especially rewarding to maintain. Each Serissa develops its own movement and flowering pattern, so subtle variation adds to its individuality.
What’s Included
You will receive the 12-year-old Serissa bonsai tree planted in its navy blue ceramic pot. We include a correctly sized drip tray to support watering and protect surfaces.
The starter kit also provides a bottle of bonsai fertiliser, offering enough nourishment in the bottle for approximately one year (when using on 1 bonsai). In addition, you receive a pair of bonsai scissors to help maintain shape and encourage healthy growth. A clear care leaflet guides you through positioning, watering, and seasonal care.
Symbolism and Lasting Appeal
The Serissa symbolises well being, good luck & hope. Its star-like flowers represent light and renewal, while its steady growth reflects resilience. For many owners, this combination of structure and flowering interest makes it a deeply satisfying bonsai to care for over time.
As the tree matures further, it continues to reward consistent attention with both foliage density and seasonal bloom.
