    Pine progression

    Hi adair, Well, I removed the wire last week. Then, the bark wasn't green underneath, so it was a "brittle" tree. Now when I checked, the needles were gray, broken, then I check the trunk and SNAP! the tree was dead. When I go to the workshop this month, I'll ask a club member for a wiring...

    is this a reasonable step by step black pine tutorial?

    Hi, So, I have a JBP seedling that is about 10" tall and is 2 years old. I read in my mastering pines book about creating JBP cascade bonsai.

    Pine progression

    Hi everyone, should I consider this JBP for $100? Its about a foot tall. I really love this, and think it would work for an informal upright. It looks like maybe a little more growing on the branches and this puppy is ready to style. Thanks, Porter
