Ok so I have always been jealous of all of these lucky nursery finds but how about this one. There are no bonsai nurseries around me,let alone anywhere that commonly has JBP, but I have been nursery hunting and happened on a nursery in Manlius , NY that had a small JBP Kyokko Yatsabusa grafted that was labeled good for "banzai". I found this to be odd none the less, but I was going to buy it as this was a great find. Well as I strolled the field I saw what looked like a large corked up JBP mixed in with some apple and ornamental trees planted in an old flower pot???? I inquired and the woman replied this was "one of those Banzai trees that no one ever bought" and they threw it in a pot and its been in the field for 8 yrs! She said "what will you take if for, because no one wants it" I said 25 bucks and I will take it off of your hands. Here is what I got. Pinus Thunbergii 'Kyokko Yatsabusa'
My plan is to just feed and water for this year, then spring repot into a 5 gal and detangle the roots and prune the one ugly root. What do you guys think?
