Chinese Elm Bonsai Starter Pack – 12 Years

There is only one happiness in life – to love and to be loved

A Meaningful Gift That Celebrates Love

This larger Chinese Elm bonsai starter pack has been created to celebrate the simple truth that to love and to be loved is life’s greatest happiness. Instead of a fleeting gift, this bonsai offers something lasting. It grows, changes, and strengthens over time. As a result, it becomes a living symbol of connection, care, and enduring affection.

A Larger, Beginner-Friendly Chinese Elm Bonsai

At the centre of this gift sits a beautifully styled 12-year-old Chinese Elm bonsai (Ulmus parvifolia). Its elegant S-shaped trunk and twiggy branch structure give it a natural, tree-like appearance. Because this is a larger bonsai, it holds moisture more effectively. Consequently, it dries out more slowly and is easier to care for than smaller starter trees.

Easy Care with Room to Grow

Chinese Elm bonsai are well known for their forgiving nature. They adapt well to indoor environments and respond positively to regular pruning. Place the tree in a bright position with plenty of daylight, keep the soil just damp, and feed weekly during the growing season. Over time, this bonsai rewards care with strong growth and a beautifully balanced canopy.

What’s Included in the Starter Pack

This bonsai arrives potted in a blue ceramic bonsai pot and is supplied with a dark-coloured drip tray to protect surfaces and help manage watering. The tray is practical and functional.
In addition, the pack includes bonsai pruning scissors, a bottle of bonsai fertiliser, the Bonsai Direct care handbook, and a free printed care leaflet. A wooden hanging tag carries the message, “There is only one happiness in life – to love and to be loved,” giving the gift its heartfelt meaning.

Symbolism and Sentiment

The Chinese Elm symbolises inner strength, intuition, wisdom, and love. Therefore, it perfectly reflects long-lasting relationships and emotional bonds. As the bonsai grows, it becomes a quiet reminder that love, when nurtured, becomes stronger with time.
