I saw that one. It has super long needles and wouldn’t survive here as well. I guess I should have put those down.Pinus canariensis also have 3 needles
Thanks!My curiosity was triggered, so I dug up this list that has a couple on them:

Do you have experience with this pine? Or have you seen them in any bonsai or landscape?Lacebark pine (p. bungeana).
They can take 21 to 14 °F, the adult needles are long but you can work them with juvenile needles or graft with JBP-JWP, Naka searched Pinus canariensis in nurserys because they make awesome trunks and barkI saw that one.

Thanks though
I’ll keep that in mind. I guess it never hurts to tryThey can take 21 to 14 °F, the adult needles are long but you can work them with juvenile needles or graft with JBP-JWP, Naka searched Pinus canariensis in nurserys because they make awesome trunks and bark

It looks like they might make it here
Thanks, I saw those. I try and do a search before posting. I went down the rabbit hole of looking for seedlings or go with seedsThoughts on pollen cones?
I've read both sides of the story- leave them, remove them. I have a JWP that is covered in pollen cones. What's the general consensus on what to do with them?www.bonsainut.comRepotting Japanese Black Pine
Repotting: FIRST remove(chopstick)surface soil to expose surface rootage. Secondly if large amount of rootball still present cut off bottom 1/3-1/2 as long as significant roots will remain. Remove circling roots then chopstick "fuzz" out some roots on sides, bottom to grow into new soil and...www.bonsainut.comLacebark Pine - Pinus bungeana

I have a couple two year old seedlings that are doing fine with no winter prtection here in zone 6. There is a large one at the VA State Arboretum at Blandy Farm, about 15 miles away.Do you have experience with this pine? Or have you seen them in any bonsai or landscape?

Nice! Did you start it from seeds?I have a couple two year old seedlings that are doing fine with no winter prtection here in zone 6. There is a large one at the VA State Arboretum at Blandy Farm, about 15 miles away.
I did. I was thinking of doing some more this year.Nice! Did you start it from seeds?
I forgot to mention that there is one (or more) in the Japanese Garden of Seattle's Washington Park. IIRC, there are at few more scattered around the UW Arboretum. Oregon U indicates p. bungeana is hardy to zone 4.Thanks, I saw those. I try and do a search before posting. I went down the rabbit hole of looking for seedlings or go with seeds
Conifer kingdom grafts everything. I probably will just order some seeds and give it a shot.I forgot to mention that there is one (or more) in the Japanese Garden of Seattle's Washington Park.

At any rate, the species should do well in the Willamette Valley too.
btw, Conifer Kingdom in Silverton has two varieties if you want to start on an older specimen.
Do you have pictures of the 2 yr old seedlings? How does the bark look at that age?I did. I was thinking of doing some more this year.
Did these do well?Schumacher ran out of lacebark after this post….. so I bought 2017 seeds from Sheffield. I bought an ounce (about 200 seeds) I also bought some pinus pumila
