Pinus nigra austriaca

Hi people, today I restyle a Pinus nigra austriaca . It is a very old pine that was collected in 1998.

Before styling 2003

First style 2003.

today

Beautiful work Karl and a stunning result. Reminds me of a similar twin cascade by Luis Vallejo

Wow! You always show great trees, but this one impressed me more. It has even something more... I can´t express.

Hi Karl,

This is very good, its a fantastic tree - congratulations. Its really good from both sides, but which side do you consider the front?

Its very nice tree.

Jonny.

Hi Karl.

This is a stunning transformation. A really nice tree, congratulations.

I have one question regarding the species. If I understand right, this is a Black Pine, which usually develops long needles. Do you have some tips and tricks how to achieve to make the needles smaller? From what I can see on the photo the needles are quite small for this species.

Cheers, Roland

very good progres of this beautiful tree ....thumb is up !

You must have a tremendous bonsai collection Karl. A new terrific tree posted every few days. I'm trying to avoid drooling on my desk as I type. Anyways, I like the tree a lot.

Another impressive transformation

Hi Roland, yes it is true that European black pine has longer needles. This pine also normally longer needles. I have planted this pine in the previous year and the new needle were smaller than usual.
I think that was the stress for this old pine.
I thank all that is for my work interesting.

Hi Karl

Very nice tree, I love this composition . The needles are really small, super!!
