Impressive Aleppo Pine Bonsai Tree | 18 Years Old

A Striking, Characterful Evergreen with Power & Potential

This commanding large Aleppo Pine bonsai (Pinus halepensis) stands 50 cm in height and radiates strength. Its twisting trunk shows excellent taper and flow, giving the tree a natural sense of movement and age. At around 3 cm in diameter, the trunk is bold yet elegant, with pliable branches that remain flexible enough to be wired into new shapes. Over time, this allows you to refine its design and unlock even greater beauty.

Presented in a brand-new glossy black rectangular ceramic pot with a chunky profile, the bonsai feels grounded and powerful. The rich dark glaze perfectly offsets the lime-green “candles” of fresh spring growth, making the foliage glow with vibrancy.

Mediterranean Heritage & Evergreen Beauty

The Aleppo Pine is native to the sun-baked hillsides and rocky coastlines of the Mediterranean. Famous for its resilience, it thrives in dry, exposed conditions and develops twisting, sculptural trunks shaped by the elements. This strength of character translates beautifully into bonsai form, where its long slender needles create a lush canopy balanced by rugged bark and dramatic curves.

Each year, vibrant green candles push forward in spring, giving the tree a sense of energy and renewal, while its evergreen foliage ensures year-round beauty.

Fascinating Facts About Aleppo Pine

Aleppo Pines can live for centuries in the wild, symbolising endurance and longevity.
Their cones are serotinous – often only releasing seeds after fire, an extraordinary survival strategy.
The resin of this species was once used in making retsina, a traditional Greek wine, linking it deeply to Mediterranean culture.
In symbolism, pines represent strength, honour, wisdom, and power – making them an especially meaningful bonsai.

Care Made Simple

This large Aleppo Pine bonsai is hardy, low-maintenance, and perfectly suited for UK outdoor cultivation. It prefers drier conditions and dislikes overwatering, making it forgiving and easy to manage. Each tree is supplied with a species-specific care guide, ensuring you have clear, tailored instructions to help your bonsai thrive.
