I've seen some spectacular white pines selling at the GSBF Anaheim convention for twice of the price of this one. And this looks like a seedling, compared to the ones at the convention.
$995 is an amazing price for such an imature stock. If it sells, I can't help but congratulate to the seller for making a killing with a stick in the pot - I don't care how rare the variety is, it is still (a rather elegant) a stick in the pot, with some attractive branch placement.
