Picked this pine up today after work. What a great way to end this insanely hot day. Peaked at around 110 today. The guy I got it from sold me some bonsai pots a while back and is in the process of clearing out his late mothers trees.
The movement is amazing, but the color looks a bit off. I want to say its lacking Iron? I have included a picture of a healthy pine of mine for reference as sometimes its hard to capture the true colors via photo. There is a good chance it was not fertilized this spring as the owner passed away toward the end of last year. It was last repotted in 2014 so the roots are established and it appears to be pushing candles all around the tree.
So Bnuts, I need your help! Its still candle cutting time and my season is pretty long. Would you prune? What about the color? What would you guys do? Thanks!
