Japanese white pine is one of the most popular evergreen conifers for bonsai. It is an elegant tree with deeply fissured, greyish bark. Soft needles, borne in tufts of five, are green-blue on the outer surface and blue-white on the inner.

Location 

Place outside in full sun in growing season.

Temperature

Though pines are hardy in most temperate areas, if there are prolonged periods of cold protect in an unheated shed or greenhouse. 

Watering 

Be careful not to overwater as pines dislike constant moisture. Water regularly in growing season. In winter keep the compost moist, but never waterlogged. Allow the surface of the compost to dry slightly between waterings.

Pruning

Remove candles in early to mid summer to maintain the trees shape. 

Repotting

Check if your tree needs repotting every 3-4 years in spring.

Feeding

Apply small quantities of rapeseed fertilizer in the gorwing season. Do not overfeed. Always read the instructions before feeding. Feed healthy trees from March to Summer until the candles are cut.

Measurements given are from the bottom of the pot to the top of the tree, the pot colour may also vary from the picture. Due to their nature trees grow and whilst in our care may need pruning, this means the tree that you receive may differ in size to that given in the description. The appearance of the tree may vary depending on the season.
