Yorkshire Bonsai Chinese Pepper (Zanthoxylum Pipertum) Bonsai Tree | Shaped | In 30cm Pot

From Yorkshire Bonsai, this Chinese Pepper (Zanthoxylum pipertum) Bonsai Tree is a shaped bonsai with a distinctive, fine-leafed look and seasonal interest. Also known as Sichuan pepper bonsai, it originates from China’s Sichuan province and belongs to the citrus family, making it an intriguing choice for collectors who enjoy characterful varieties.

Glossy dark green leaves with subtly serrated edges sit against smooth, light grey bark, creating a crisp contrast that suits both contemporary and traditional displays. In summer, the tree produces small white flowers, followed by bright red berries around the size of a peppercorn. The berries are described as edible and are often used in Sichuan cuisine as a spice, as well as in traditional Chinese medicine.

Popular with bonsai enthusiasts for its unique appearance and ease of care, it responds well to pruning and can be trained into a range of forms over time, making it a versatile addition to a growing collection. Supplied in a 30cm pot, it also carries cultural significance in China, where it is believed to bring good luck and prosperity and is often chosen for gifting and seasonal decoration during Chinese New Year.
