Don't miss the opportunity to add this superb Japanese black pine from my personal collection to your own bonsai collection.
The hard work has been done. It is growing well and balancing up nicely.
 
It has a really good shape with good taper and an excellent nebari.
 
The  dark green needles, and attractive bark on this bonsai is sure to be a showstopper in any bonsai collection.
I have its photo history from 2019/20. It has a good well travelled history in the UK.
Don't wait too long, as bonsai of this quality are hard to come by and are highly sought after.
 
 
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).
