Everlasting Gifts for New Mum | Purple Cherry Blossom Bonsai Starter Kit
A Gentle, Meaningful Gift for a New Mum
If you are searching for gifts for a new mum that feel thoughtful, calming, and long lasting, this Purple Cherry Blossom bonsai is a beautiful choice. It offers gentle seasonal change and quiet beauty, which suits a new chapter of life perfectly. As a result, it feels far more personal than traditional flowers.
This young outdoor bonsai is also known as the Black Cherry Plum, Prunus cerasifera ‘Nigra’. It features elegant twig structure and naturally expressive branching. In spring, pale pink flowers appear against unfolding bronze foliage. Through summer, the leaves deepen to rich purple tones before finishing with striking reds and oranges in autumn. The tree thrives outdoors in full sun and suits beginners well.
Beautifully Presented and Ready to Grow
We pot this starter bonsai in a classic navy blue ceramic pot, which gives the roots space to establish and grow. A drip tray sits beneath to protect any outdoor surfaces during watering – the tray isn’t essential for outdoor bonsai. To mark the occasion, we include a cheerful balloon, which adds a light, celebratory touch without overpowering the gift.
This kit includes bonsai pruning scissors and bonsai fertiliser to support early shaping and healthy growth. Every bonsai also comes with a printed care guide. The guide explains positioning, watering, seasonal behaviour, and pruning, so a new mum can enjoy the tree with confidence and ease.
A Starter Bonsai with Long-Term Potential
This Purple Cherry Blossom is a young starter bonsai. It offers plenty of scope for gentle shaping over time and rewards patience with seasonal beauty. As a deciduous bonsai, it follows the natural rhythm of the year and displays attractive structure even when out of leaf.
Please note: Each bonsai is individually grown and shaped, so the exact form, branching, and character of your tree may vary slightly from the images shown.
