Your cart is empty.Pinus thunbergii (Japanese Black Pine) * Full sun/part shade * Zones 5-9 * Origin Japan Highly sought after by Bonsai enthusiasts Japanese Black Pine! The Japanese Black Pine is a classic species of tree to use for Bonsai purposes, also very popular in Japan. Pinus species that have short needles are most suitable to grow Bonsai from. Black Pines are very tolerant of poor conditions, surviving in nature on nutrient-lacking soils. The tree has thick needles up to 12cm (4’’) long, which can be shortened by regular pinching. Specific Bonsai care guidelines for the Japanese Pine Position: Outside with lots of sun, this also helps decrease the needle size (needles grow longer if the tree doesn’t get enough sunlight). Pine trees are very hardy, but still need to be protected during the winter. Watering: Be careful not to over-water, as Pines dislike permanent moist. Good drainage is required. Feeding: Use a normal fertilizer on a monthly base to keep the tree healthy. Pruning: Pines have to be handled with care, although they can withstand pruning quite well; never style the tree more than ones every year (preferably in early spring). Repotting: Repot in spring before the buds begin to swell, every two to three years. Preferably use a well draining soil mixture. Propagation: From seeds in April, otherwise use cuttings during the summer.

The product was fair. The graft was a little rough, but with time it should look better. Packaging was OK and arrived in a timely matter healthy Japanese black pine.

Dishonest sellers. Not once do they mention that this is a grafted tree (and a bad graft at that). Very disappointing.

Poorly done graft. Tree is weak and it’s questionable whether it will survive.I’ve tried deciduous and conifer from this seller and both trees arrived unhealthy and poor quality.

First this product arrived in 4 days from the date placing the order. Fantastic I love a speedy delivery. Secondly this plant blow my socks off! The size of this plant is amazing. The deep dark green colored needles and thick truck shows the care this nursery put into their products speaks volume. This is a great specimen to use as a bonsai starter. It stands almost 2 ft (pot included), and the truck is about 5/8 inches thick. I like this 3 year seedling so much, I'm going to purchase two more, one for myself and the other for my grandson to get him started in the art of Bonsai.
