Mother’s Day Flowers | Cherry Blossom Bonsai Tree Gift
A Seasonal Alternative to Traditional Mother’s Day Flowers
If you are looking for Mother’s Day flowers with lasting impact, this Cherry Blossom bonsai offers a beautiful and meaningful alternative. Rather than fading after a few days, it follows the seasons and rewards your mum with colour, structure, and change throughout the year.
This outdoor Cherry Blossom bonsai, known as Prunus incisa ‘Kojo No Mai’, grows with elegant zig-zag branches and a naturally open habit. In early spring, delicate white flowers with soft pink tones bloom in abundance, creating a breathtaking display. As the flowers fall, they resemble butterflies drifting in the air, which gives the variety its name, “Flight of the Butterflies.”
Year-Round Interest with Easy Care
After flowering, fresh green leaves emerge and deepen in colour through summer. Small ornamental cherry fruits may follow. As autumn arrives, the foliage transforms into rich shades of red, orange, and gold. During winter, the tree sheds its leaves and reveals a striking bare structure full of character and movement.
This Cherry Blossom bonsai is fully hardy and thrives outdoors. It suits gardens, patios, decking, or sheltered balconies. Because of its forgiving nature, it works well as a starter bonsai for beginners.
Please note: This is a deciduous bonsai. During winter dormancy, it naturally sheds its leaves. Fresh buds and flowers return in early spring.
Beautiful Presentation and Thoughtful Details
We pot this Mother’s Day flowers alternative in a rich royal blue ceramic bonsai pot, which complements the tree’s seasonal colour beautifully. To mark the occasion, we include a blue floral Mother’s Day foil balloon, adding a celebratory and thoughtful finishing touch.
Every bonsai includes a printed care guide. The guide explains positioning, watering, seasonal changes, and what to expect throughout the year. As a result, your mum can enjoy her bonsai with confidence from day one.
Symbolism with Deep Meaning
Cherry Blossom bonsai symbolise good fortune, new beginnings, renewal, and future happiness. In Japanese culture, they also represent the beauty and fragility of life. For that reason, this tree makes a deeply meaningful Mother’s Day gift that goes far beyond traditional flowers.
