Memory Tree | Chinese Elm Starter Memory Tree Kit for Beginners
A memory tree to honour and remember
Creating a memory tree offers a gentle and lasting way to honour someone special. This Chinese Elm bonsai provides a living tribute that brings calm, continuity, and presence into the home. Rather than something fleeting, it offers a meaningful reminder that can be returned to day after day.
An elegant Chinese Elm with character
At the heart of this memory tree kit is an 8-year-old indoor Chinese Elm bonsai, Ulmus parvifolia. The tree features an elegant S-shaped, twisty trunk and rich green, serrated leaves that give it a classic, tree-like appearance. As it matures, its structure and branching develop further, adding depth and quiet beauty to the space around it.
Because the Chinese Elm responds well to gentle care, it suits beginners while still feeling established and reassuring.
Symbolism rooted in meaning
The Chinese Elm carries a long-held symbolism of inner strength, intuition, wisdom, and love. For this reason, it works especially well as a memory tree. It reflects endurance and continuity, while offering a peaceful presence that does not demand attention or explanation.
Supplied as a complete beginners kit
This memory tree arrives ready to care for and enjoy. The kit includes a drip tray to protect surfaces, bonsai fertiliser to support healthy growth, and pruning scissors for light, careful shaping. An “In Loving Memory” wooden hanging tag completes the presentation with a respectful and understated message. Full printed care instructions are also included, so you can feel confident from the start.
A living tribute for the home
Because this bonsai lives indoors, it allows a remembrance tree to remain close rather than distant. Over time, caring for the tree can feel grounding and familiar. As a result, it becomes part of everyday life, offering comfort in small, steady moments.
Delivered with care and flexibility
We offer free next working day delivery to most UK addresses. Alternatively, you can select a preferred delivery date at checkout to ensure the bonsai arrives at the right time. Gift wrap and additional extras are also available, allowing you to personalise your memory tree and create a thoughtful presentation.
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.
