Chaenomeles chojubai – Quince – 30 cm
A Chaenomeles chojubai bonsai, measuring 25 cm in height (excluding the pot) and with a trunk diameter of 1 cm. The plant is grown in an oval glazed stoneware pot measuring 14 x 11 x H5 cm.
Chaenomeles chojubai (quince) bonsai, a deciduous species, highly prized for its early and abundant flowering in vibrant orange-red hues, for its fruit production, and for the early emergence of its foliage. Between late winter and early spring, it produces an abundant display of brightly coloured flowers with prominent golden stamens, which stand out against the still partially bare branches, creating a striking ornamental effect. The flowering is followed by the characteristic yellow fruits, which remain on the plant throughout the summer until they ripen. The foliage develops in spring and summer with small, bright green leaves; it takes on delicate golden-yellow hues before falling in autumn and becomes bare during the winter. Grown in an oval, turquoise-glazed stoneware pot, it creates a refined contrast with the intense colours of the flowers, enhancing the plant’s overall aesthetic balance.
Grow your bonsai outdoors year-round, taking care to place it in a sheltered spot during the colder months and in partial shade during the warmer months. Chaenomeles requires good ventilation.
Always observe the wet-dry cycle: whenever the soil feels dry to the touch, water thoroughly. Then wait until the soil dries out before watering again.
