Product Code: OD349
£46.99
A gorgeous Japanese Maple Starter Bonsai (Orange Dream) with informal upright trunk design and distinctive, colourful foliage.
This is the exact bonsai which you will receive!
This lovely bonsai starter tree features an informal upright trunk and showcases delightful colours year-round. A fun bonsai to grow on and develop. The main trunk structure is elegant and well established but now the bonsai needs styling and the branches need to thicken over time to create a more highly refined and intricate design.
The palm-shaped leaves of the Japanese Maple display stunning seasonal colours, otherwise referred to as the Acer palmatum. This particular Acer palmatum is called the “Orange Dream”. It arrives in a classic navy blue ceramic pot, enhancing its aesthetic appeal with a pop of colour.
Radiating grace, peace, strength, and love, the Japanese Maple oozes a sense of serenity and honour.
With a rich history of symbolism, the Japanese maple tree has played an important part in art, gardening and even poetry for hundreds of years. This variety of tree is considered a symbol of grace personified and is associated with peace and serenity of the world’s elements. Maple trees are a symbol of strength and endurance. In China, the maple is associated with honour, and its leaves are a motif in Japanese ukiyo-e paintings representing love and autumn.
The Acer palmatum is a stunning variety which is very popular in the bonsai world and boasts stunning lobed, orange new growth with reddish margins in the spring. The leaves fade to green, retaining their orange edges in the summer. Autumn then offers a spectacular display of vibrant yellows, reds and oranges.
Acer palmatum is best positioned in slight shade and kindly avoid windy positions.
