Grown outdoors for strength and character, this Prunus kojo no mai bonsai delivers year-round interest and therefore makes a meaningful gift or standout addition to any outdoor space.
This Cherry Blossom bonsai transforms gracefully with the seasons. In early spring, soft pink and white flowers appear along the branches, creating the illusion of butterflies in flight. As a result, the tree becomes a breathtaking focal point just as the garden begins to awaken.

In autumn, the leaves turn rich shades of red and gold, while in winter, the bare branches reveal a beautifully structured form that remains striking even at rest.

Presentation and Growing Environment
This larger Cherry Blossom bonsai is planted in a cream ceramic pot that complements its delicate flowers and natural tones.
