A Pinus thunbergii (black pine) bonsai, an evergreen conifer that is robust and highly prized in the art of bonsai for its rough bark and vigorous needles. The foliage is dense and consists of long, slender, double needles of a bright green colour. It features a trunk with mature, rough bark, which cracks as it ages, becoming increasingly interesting. The shari style (Sharimiki) features visible jin on the branches and shari on the trunk, giving the plant an air of antiquity and strength. This style blends living and dead wood, highlighting the plant’s resilience and beauty. It is grown in a rectangular, unglazed stoneware pot, whose natural, textured tones evoke the elements of earth and rock, enhancing the authenticity of the composition and lending the bonsai a majestic and refined appearance.
Grow bonsai outdoors all year round in a well-ventilated area, taking care to place it in a sheltered spot during the colder months and in partial shade during the warmer months.
Always respect the dry and wet cycles: whenever the soil feels dry to the touch, water abundantly. Then wait for the soil to dry before watering again in the same way.
