What arrived was nothing like what was advertised. Tree was already pruned, leaving only a few branches and limited styling options.
Nice plant. Well packaged. Arrive safe and sound. Would buy from this supplier again.
Scots Pine:(Pinus sylvestris) is a coniferous tree native to Europe and Siberia, making it a very hardy variety. The needles are short and soft, similar to Japanese Black Pine, but unlike the JBP, the Scots Pine buds back very easily, taking very well to shaping and root pruning. One of the easiest and best pines for Bonsai.
Scots Pine does very well as both Literati and traditional Pine style Bonsai.
Spring 2022 Update: Our current Young inventory, has just been potted up this spring from last year's babies which have outgrown their 4" pots. But we are still keeping the price down, to what it is for baby Scots Pines. These are 2.5 Year seedlings, from a Scottish highland cultivar.
BONSAI CARE
Scots Pine needs full sun, and the more sun they get, the shorter the needles will be. Being in a pot, the Scots Pine will still require winterizing.
Watering:
BABY: 8"-12" tall, comes in a 4" grower's pot.
YOUNG: 10"-14" tall, comes in a 6" grower's pot.
