Syzygium Buxifolium Bonsai Kit – Perfect for Beginners with Flowers & Fruit

Experience the joy of bonsai with our Syzygium Buxifolium (Oriental Roseapple/Myrtle) Starter Kit, a charming indoor bonsai that blooms creamy flowers in summer and produces small cherry-like fruits in autumn. This delightful tree is known for its natural miniature leaves with blush-red tips, giving it fantastic character and style.

What’s Included:

  • 8-year-old S-shaped fruiting and flowering Roseapple bonsai

  • Elegant deep blue ceramic pot

  • Dark drip tray to protect your surfaces

  • Pruning scissors to help maintain shape

  • Bonsai fertiliser for healthy growth

  • Easy-to-follow care instructions

This bonsai’s glossy green leaves and seasonal colour changes make it a wonderful living ornament for any home or office.


About the Tree

The Syzygium Buxifolium is native to South Africa and often called Roseapple or Brush Cherry because of its bright red, cherry-like fruits. Its soft cream flowers, with long, delicate stamens, appear before the fruits and create a lovely starburst effect. New leaves emerge with a charming blush-red hue, fading into rich greens as they mature.

With naturally small leaves, this species offers an elegant, dainty stature, making it an ideal choice for beginners. The bonsai’s trunk will have a graceful winding flow, though it may not be quite as twisty as the photo shown.


Care Made Simple

  • Light: Bright, indirect light is best indoors. Avoid direct sun and cold drafts.

  • Water: Keep the soil evenly moist—water when the top feels dry, but don’t let it get soggy.

  • Humidity: Occasional misting helps mimic its natural environment.

  • Feeding: Apply bonsai fertiliser every week. Ensure it is diluted prior to application.

  • Pruning: Use the included scissors to trim new growth and maintain shape.


Delivery & Extras

  • Free next working day delivery to most UK addresses

  • Option to select your preferred delivery date at checkout

  • Supplied in a stylish blue ceramic pot with drip tray

  • Full care instructions included
