They are fast growing, wind resistant plants that grow well in poor soils. There are a number of Elaeagnus species suitable for use as bonsai including E. multiflora that is a deciduous shrub with leaves that are green on top and silver below. Elaeagnus pungens, a dense, spiny shrub with dark-green leaves is also a very useful species.<\/p>\n<p>Elaeagnus produce small, sometimes fragrant flowers in Spring and these are followed by small edible, colourful fruit.<\/p>\n<p><b><u>BONSAI CULTIVATION NOTES<\/u><\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>POSITION: <\/b>Full sun or partial shade.
