I was on my way home from work & saw a yard sale & spotted some plants so I could'nt not stop. Anyways they had these sitting there with a price tag for $3 each. The person that sold them said they were black pines, unsure if they are but they look to be. For 3 bucks I figured that it was cheap enough to experiment on these.
Once I got home & have a closer look at them I am sort of at a loss as to what I can do. So before I touch these I figured I would ask all of you on your opinion.
The first one pictured I am at a complete loss.. Remove the oversized lower branch i think & possibly the other. There are small branches in the back that could be used as a eventual new leader.
The one with the jin I think would look good if I worked the jin some maybe shorten it? The leader has a weird curve that doesnt fit the tree much so removing the jin completely would bring more attention to that. The trunk is actually nice just need to work on the live vein some to make it look better
