One-of-a-Kind Japanese Black Pine Bonsai (Seed-Grown 1988)
This one-of-a-kind Japanese Black Pine was grown from seed in 1988 and immediately stands out for two things that matter most in pine bonsai: a great trunk and a strong, grounded nebari. The base gives the tree instant credibility and a sense of age, exactly what collectors and serious growers look for when choosing a pine with long-term potential.
With continued seasonal work, this JBP can be developed into a tighter, more refined silhouette over time. But the real value is already here: the foundation. Strong trunk movement, mature character, and a stable base are the parts you can’t rush, and this tree already has them.

Why This Tree Stands Out

- Refinement upside: A strong foundation for building density and pad definition over future seasons.
