Old Japanese Black Pine Bonsai – Wide Canopy, Powerful Trunk, First Time Online
This is an old Japanese Black Pine that has been hanging around our nursery for a couple years, but this is its first appearance online.
It’s the right size, with the right presence: a wide canopy, strong trunk movement, and branching that already feels mature. We believe this tree came to us through a trade a couple years ago, and it’s been patiently waiting for the right person.
Important note on condition: This pine does have wire marks. In many cases, when customers “age out” of the art, removing wire on schedule isn’t always top of mind. The wire has been removed, but the marks remain and will need time (and proper growth management) to repair themselves. This is reflected in the price, and it’s also what makes this a great opportunity for someone who knows what they’re looking at.
This tree is slated to be styled unless it finds a new home first, so if you’ve been looking for an older Black Pine with real character and you enjoy the work ahead, this one is worth a serious look.
The pot complements the tree very well. We do not believe the pot is Japanese, but it fits the scale and feel of the pine nicely.
