This Pyracantha bonsai is a true, once-in-a-lifetime specimen—over 40 years old, with an impressive 6-inch nebari and a height just under 14 inches. Mature Pyracantha bonsai of this caliber almost never appear on Etsy, and it’s even more uncommon to find one with such age, structure, and presence already established.
Currently shown in its winter appearance (photos taken as displayed), the tree features the signature look of a well-aged Pyracantha: textured bark, defined branching, and the charming beauty this species is known for. Pyracanthas are celebrated for their seasonal berries, fine ramification potential, and year-round visual interest, making them beloved by bonsai artists and collectors.
This tree is planted in a 10-inch bonsai pot and is ready to continue its journey with a knowledgeable grower. Because this is a true specimen bonsai, Bakersfield Bonsai makes the assumption that anyone purchasing this tree understands the care requirements of mature Pyracantha.
