The Japanese Black Pine is a classic outdoor, evergreen species to use for Bonsai. They have an upright habit, stiff, dark green needles in pairs and dark, fissured bark that gives the trunks an impressive rugged appearance.
They are double flush in growth habit so good branch development is fairly quick. Hardy in most areas. During the growing season place in full sun. They dislike constant moisture so be careful not to over water and ensure a good free draining soil. (1:1:1 Akadama:Pumice:Grit).
