Its graceful, flowing trunk curves elegantly, creating a beautiful silhouette. Displayed in a neutral olive green ceramic pot with a matching drip tray, this captivating bonsai brings warmth and charm to any indoor space.

Wonderful Trunk Design

The trunk of this Oriental Myrtle rises with soft, natural movement that conveys maturity and harmony. Smooth lines and gentle curves create visual balance, while the refined shape highlights the tree’s artistic styling. As it ages, the bark develops red undertones and a textured finish, adding depth and character over time. The exposed roots are fine, yet they are a very eye-catching feature.

Foliage & Seasonal Interest

Glossy, elliptical leaves form a neat canopy that stays vibrant all year round. During summer, the new leaf tips blush red, bringing lively contrast against the mature green foliage. In flowering season, delicate cream blooms appear, each with fine stamens reminiscent of tiny roses. As the bonsai matures further, it may reward you with small fruits, completing its seasonal charm.

Neutral Olive Green Ceramic Pot with Matching Drip Tray

A  stylish olive green glaze frames this tree beautifully. The colour harmonises with the green tones of the leaves and the warm bark hues, while the matching drip tray ensures a clean, cohesive display. This pretty pot adds a refreshing accent to modern interiors or serene home settings. It perfectly compliments the summer foliage colours & flowers, as well as the autumnal fruits.
