Japanese Black Pine

Another beautiful starter plant received from Bonsaify. The shape of the plant is fantastic. I have planted it into a larger pot and will give it years for growth.

was a bit concerned about how the two black pine starters would fare over the course of a week inside an enclosed box during transit, but was pleasantly surprised at how healthy and well maintained they were. I especially appreciated the work that went into them to produce the low bend in the trunk and the pruning and decandling that was done to get them to this point. Also greatly appreciated the follow up response and information that was provided to my inquiry. Simply put, these guys are awesome.
