Black pine has a very strong ability to adapt to the environment. It can be planted indoors or in flowerpots. It is also a good choice for bonsai materials. It can be viewed all year round and can grow up to 30 meters high. Its origin is Japan and North Korea. Now it is planted in most areas of China. Today, let's have a brief understanding of how black pine makes bonsai.

Time of production:

The best production time is between winter and spring, during which black pine is in dormancy, which is very conducive to the production of bonsai, and the probability of success is relatively high, and the possibility of death and damage is also the lowest. If you want to shape, you can choose to do it in the summer when it grows most

Material selection of black pine:

The best material for bonsai production is the wild black pine in the pine forest between the mountains. You can plant the seeds of the wild black pine. When you grow up, you can make and shape.

Production concept:

Even the pure wild black pine has some imperfections, so it still needs to be pruned, strapped and so on. In the case of its incomplete growth, it is necessary to adjust the tree shape, or make bending for some specific branches. Before making, it is necessary to have a simple idea, and then it can be made with different tools. The production of the main trunk is the most important step of the whole bonsai.

Production method:

1. The original main trunk is relatively thick, which can be cut to avoid a main trunk occupying too much space in the flowerpot.

2. Select appropriate lateral branches, fix them or let them show a drooping growth trend. When selecting the lateral branches, pay attention to make them all feel scattered, do not opposite, or two lateral branches are on the same horizontal line. This will affect its ornamental value.

3. In its growth period, it is feasible to climb and make. If you want to control its growth, you can pick buds.
