Black pine refinement

It is always a pleasure to reflect on the art of continuous improvement of your bonsai.

This old Mikawa Black Pine, from 1970 Japanese seed, is a great example of what can be achieved with time and a great deal of effort in needle thinning,  bud selection and wiring every year in Autumn/Winter.

Many of the workshop students at The Australian Bonsai Gallery are realizing the rewards of their efforts with their pines over time. 

The process is not a difficult one.  Most pine species are relatively easy to develop and refine.  All it takes is to sign yourself up for a series of Workshops with us, or any other reputable artist and see for yourself how easy and enjoyable pine bonsai can be.
