A Beautiful Miniature Olive Bonsai Plant in a Royal Blue Lotus Pot
Bring a touch of Mediterranean calm into your home with this elegant 10-year-old Olive Bonsai Plant (Olea europaea). This tree displays a clean, open structure with a beautifully exposed root flare and a gently flowing trunk. Its evergreen leaves shimmer as they catch the light, revealing deep green above and soft silver beneath. Together, these features create a peaceful and timeless presence.
Potted into a striking lotus-shaped royal blue ceramic bonsai pot, this Olive becomes an immediate focal point. It suits indoor display through most of the year and looks wonderful outside on a sunny patio during the summer months.
This is the exact bonsai you will receive.
Natural Structure and Styling
This bonsai shows a well-developed three-dimensional form. The trunk rises smoothly from the roots before dividing into well-positioned branches that add height, shape and depth. Its naturally twiggy habit creates an airy canopy, allowing you to admire the trunk movement and refined structure from every angle.
Flowering and Fruiting Olive Bonsai Plant
In spring and early summer, the Olive may produce clusters of creamy-white flowers with a soft, pleasant fragrance. As the tree matures, these flowers can develop into olives that slowly ripen from green to deep purple or black. These seasonal changes highlight the species’ Mediterranean origins and add authenticity to the display.
Symbolism and Meaning
For thousands of years, the Olive tree has symbolised peace, friendship, hope and resilience. These positive associations make this bonsai a thoughtful gift for milestones, new beginnings or any moment that calls for meaning and sentiment.
Simple and Rewarding to Care For
Olive bonsai thrive in bright, warm conditions and prefer slightly drier soil. Water when the surface becomes barely damp. Place the tree outdoors on a sunny patio in summer, then move it indoors to a bright cool room, conservatory or windowsill for winter. Protect it from hard frost to keep it at its best.
Watering, Feeding and Pruning
Water sparingly and avoid keeping the soil wet. Weekly feeding during the growing season encourages healthy foliage and strong new growth. Light pruning maintains its shape and keeps the structure elegant.
