Fruit tree native to Asia minor and Syria. Robust plant that adapts well to different soil types: calcareous-clayey. If well cultivated and manured it produces its fruit, even in bonsai cultivation.
It is the plant with which the Franks began its history as a manufacturer of bonsai. Essence robust and typical of our area, is a plant that we recommend to all to start.

One of the bonsai more details of our collection. It is called the “dragon,” because in the central part you can make out a figure of animal, and for this reason has taken this name.
A particularly interesting is that at one time the plant was exposed on a table very low, leaving only the children the chance to catch a glimpse of the strange animal. Adults, by looking at the bonsai from the top, could not see what the kids noticed. Once you have discovered the mystery, it was enough to raise the plant to see all the “the dragon”.
