The Sesbania Bonsai (Sesbania spp.) is an elegant and unusual bonsai known for its soft, feathery foliage and delicate branching structure. Its fine, fern-like leaves create a light and graceful appearance that gives the tree a tropical aesthetic. During the growing season, Sesbania trees can occasionally produce small decorative flowers, adding extra character and seasonal interest.
This particular tree stands approximately 43cm tall and is elegantly presented in a cream ceramic bonsai pot measuring 17cm depth and 17cm width. Its compact size and graceful shape make it perfect for desks, windowsills, or shelves adding a calming, natural aesthetic to any space.

Please Note: Measurements given are approximate. Depending on the season, the appearance of the tree may vary. The tree that you receive may differ in size and shape to the photo if it has grown or been pruned since.
Sesbania bonsai trees thrive in bright, warm environments and prefer a location with plenty of natural light. A sunny windowsill or bright indoor space is ideal.
During the warmer months, the tree will benefit from being placed outdoors in a sunny, sheltered location where it can receive fresh air and additional sunlight. If light levels are too low, the tree may produce weaker growth or elongated shoots.
Watering
No strict schedule, watering needs vary based on climate, soil, airflow, and pot size.
We recommend using the submersion method, which we’ve detailed on our Best Way to Water a Bonsai Tree blog post.
Feeding
Feed weekly or fortnightly from March to October with Chrysal Liquid Bonsai Feed (2 ml per litre of water). Add directly to the water during submersion.
Regular pruning keeps your bonsai healthy, compact, and aesthetically pleasing. Growing season (March–September). Trim and pinch back new growth, which can be identified by its lighter green colour, throughout the year and whenever needed. Once the new growth is around 10cm, trim it back, leaving some new foliage.
Wiring is best done during late autumn, when the tree’s growth naturally slows. Use a wire that is approximately the same thickness as the branch. This helps gently shape and refine your bonsai’s structure over time.
