Cherry Blossom Bonsai Tree Gift for Mum | Meaningful & Sentimental Mother’s Day Presents
A Mother’s Day Present That Blooms with Meaning
If you are searching for Mother’s Day presents that feel thoughtful and lasting, this Cherry Blossom bonsai is a beautiful choice. Instead of flowers that fade, it delivers seasonal beauty year after year. As a result, it becomes a living reminder of love and appreciation.
We pot this Cherry Blossom bonsai in a timeless navy blue glazed ceramic bonsai pot, which provides space for healthy growth and long-term development. A wooden “Best Mum” hanging tag adds a warm, personal touch and makes the gift feel truly considered. Every bonsai also includes a printed care guide, which explains watering, positioning, seasonal changes, and pruning clearly, so your mum can enjoy her tree with confidence from day one.
Seasonal Beauty with Classic Character
Known botanically as Prunus incisa ‘Kojo-no-mai’, this Cherry Blossom bonsai is also called the Fuji Cherry or the “Flight of the Butterflies” tree. It features a distinctive zigzag branch structure that looks striking even when out of leaf.
In spring, delicate white flowers appear with soft pink tones and deeper pink centres. Summer brings fresh green foliage, while autumn follows with serrated leaves in rich shades of orange and red, often accompanied by small cherry fruits. During winter, the bare branches reveal the elegant structure beneath, which keeps the bonsai visually interesting all year.
This is a hardy, deciduous outdoor bonsai that thrives in gardens, patios, or sheltered balconies. It enjoys bright light and fresh air while following the natural rhythm of the seasons.
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.
Why Choose Bonsai Direct
Bonsai Direct is a professional, trusted bonsai specialist nursery with expert growers who nurture every tree individually. We never mass-produce our bonsai. Instead, we focus on healthy plants with natural character. We include detailed printed care guides, offer excellent customer service, and provide fast, reliable delivery on the date you choose. Each bonsai is carefully packaged to arrive safely, and customer satisfaction is second to none.
We grow our cherry blossom bonsai trees outside and they are a deciduous bonsai species. They should be grown outdoors as they are fully hardy. They are early Spring flowerers, so you should see new buds in February/March. When out of leaf they still exhibit a lovely structure. From spring budding you get wondrous soft pink/white blossom, followed by lush lime green leaves. During autumn you get cherry fruits and spectacular autumn red and golden hues.
