Acquired at the Trophy 2026 in Genk from Yannick Kiggen of Yama Bonsai. This approx. 30 y. old Japanese White Pine, height 25 cm, has a stem base of 5 cm and some nasty wiring bytes that -so I'm told- will naturally heal out over time.

After a minimal spring prune, leaving only 2 buds per shoot. The tree is far from being in good condition, but it is gaining health.
Happy to see it flowering and finally see it building its spring candles.
This little white pine is settling in well. The flowers indicate that it's doing ok.
In good company with "the old lady", a Chamaecyparis pisifera Boulevard
After repotting on March 2 2026. Its shape will be tuned next autumn/winter.
