Last week I visited my friend Steve who owns a nursery in Belgium.
I go there now and then because he has great material for sale and to help him out with his trees.
He has a lot and most of them are really big so help is always nice.
We started working on this Scots pine that he acquired from someone who had to give up the hobby because of health problems.
After he got it it only grew nothing was done to it.
So a first step towards becoming a great bonsai tree was needed.
Giving it it's first styling and thinking it out will let air and sun get in to promote new growth.
Now the tree needs to grow foliage closer to the trunk and be repotted next year. More on my blog.
