20+ Years Old Meiren Mei Plum Bonsai – Large, Fragrant Flowers

This beautiful Meiren Mei (美人梅) is a mature 20+ year-old flowering plum bonsai with a well-developed trunk and the distinctive character that only comes with age. It is an excellent choice for bonsai collectors, traditional gardens, patios, and ornamental landscapes.

Meiren Mei is especially admired for its large, showy flowers. Compared with many traditional plum varieties, the blossoms are noticeably larger and fuller, creating an impressive display when the tree reaches peak bloom. The flowers feature attractive pink to rosy tones and release a pleasant natural fragrance, bringing both color and scent to the garden.

The mature trunk gives each tree a strong, aged appearance with natural movement and texture. Since these are living, individually grown plants, trunk shape, branching, size, and overall form will vary from tree to tree, making every specimen unique.

This flowering plum is deciduous and goes through natural seasonal changes. During dormancy, the tree may arrive with few or no leaves. Flowering time and bloom density vary depending on climate, temperature, sunlight, and growing conditions.

For best growth, provide well-draining soil, good sunlight, and consistent watering while avoiding prolonged waterlogging.

Ideal for buyers searching for a mature plum bonsai, flowering plum tree, fragrant bonsai, pink flowering bonsai, Japanese apricot-style bonsai, old trunk bonsai, or ornamental flowering tree.

Bonsai Creation Guidelines
Container Selection: Use a shallow bonsai pot with drainage holes. Divide the land and water areas in a balanced way, and add rocks if desired to create a layered landscape effect.
Plant Selection: Choose dwarf varieties of Prunus mume when available. During planting, provide good ventilation and full sun, and avoid waterlogging.

Maintenance Guidelines
Fertilization: Apply fertilizer 1-2 times per month during the growing season (late May to early August), with an additional application in autumn.
Pruning: Regularly thin out branches and shorten overly long ones. Remove old stems and new buds as needed, adjusting the shape to your design.

Ornamental Features
Flowering Period: Blooms from winter to spring with dense, double pink-purple flowers. Its leaf color and branching structure can be appreciated year-round.
Cold Hardiness: Can tolerate temperatures as low as -20°C, making it suitable for outdoor placement in northern winters.
