7-Year-Old Informal Upright Mulberry Bonsai – Hardy Morus Bonsai with Blossom and Fruit
Individually Photographed – The Exact Bonsai Tree You Will Receive
This delightful 7-year-old Morus Mulberry Bonsai beautifully captures the elegance of a mature woodland tree in miniature. Styled in the classic informal upright form, it features graceful trunk movement, excellent proportions and a wonderfully open branch structure. As a result, you can appreciate its three-dimensional design from every angle. The flowing trunk and carefully positioned branches create a natural composition full of balance and tranquillity.
Most importantly, this is the exact bonsai tree you will receive. We individually photograph every premium bonsai at our rural Devon nursery, so you can buy with complete confidence.
Elegant Woodland Character
The slender trunk rises with soft serpentine movement before dividing into strong, well-spaced branches. Together, they form a light, airy canopy that reflects the beauty of a mature Mulberry growing naturally in the countryside. Furthermore, the open branch structure allows light to pass through the tree, highlighting its elegant framework and refined silhouette.
Rather than relying on dramatic twists, this bonsai celebrates natural form. Consequently, it conveys the quiet beauty and timeless character of an ancient woodland tree.
Beautiful Leaves, Blossom and Fruit
One of the greatest attractions of Morus is its outstanding seasonal interest.
In spring, fresh lime green leaves emerge and quickly fill the canopy with vibrant colour. Their attractive heart-shaped form, softly serrated edges and gently textured surface create a delicate appearance that perfectly suits bonsai. As the season progresses, the foliage matures into a rich green canopy that remains lush throughout summer.
Meanwhile, clusters of delicate pale pink to creamy white flowers appear among the branches. Although each flower is small, together they create a charming seasonal display.
Later, the flowers give way to delicious edible fruits that closely resemble miniature blackberries. The berries gradually change from green to red before ripening to rich purple-black. Not only do they look beautiful, but they are also sweet and enjoyable to eat. Therefore, Mulberry is one of the few bonsai species that combines ornamental beauty with edible fruit.
A Hardy Outdoor Bonsai
Mulberry is a fully hardy deciduous species that thrives outdoors throughout the year. It enjoys a sunny position where it produces healthy foliage, abundant flowers and a generous crop of fruit.
Each season brings something new to admire. Fresh spring growth gives way to colourful summer foliage, blossom and fruit. Then, during autumn, the leaves turn beautiful shades of golden yellow before falling gracefully. Finally, winter reveals the elegant branch structure, allowing the tree’s natural architecture to take centre stage.
Presented in a Rich Royal Blue Ceramic Bonsai Pot
Lloyd has paired this attractive Mulberry Bonsai with a rich royal blue glazed ceramic bonsai pot. The vibrant glaze beautifully complements the fresh green foliage while providing a striking contrast during the fruiting season.
Together, the tree and pot create a colourful yet elegant display that suits almost any garden or outdoor bonsai collection.
Rich in History and Symbolism
People have admired Mulberry trees for centuries. They even have royal connections dating back to Tudor England, when they were planted in the hope of establishing a silk industry.
Across many cultures, the Mulberry symbolises care, nurturing, growth and resilience. In addition, it represents exploration, adventure, generosity and providing for others. These uplifting meanings make it a thoughtful bonsai to own or give as a lasting gift.
Easy to Care For
Despite its refined appearance, Morus is easy to grow and ideal for beginners. It grows vigorously, responds well to pruning and rewards good care with beautiful seasonal displays year after year.
Every bonsai also includes our comprehensive bonsai care handbook, helping you care for your tree with confidence from the day it arrives.
