Bonsai Specimen Pinus pentaphylla, 66 years. Five-needle pine. This old Pinus pentaphylla has an excellent usu-moyogui style (moyogui with light and soft curves). It stands out for the excellent distribution of its branches that open in all directions.

Like all old trees, this specimen of Pinus pentaphylla is planted in a deep pot. It is very suitable for growing in hot and dry climates.

The Bonsai Specimen section is made up only of those bonsai that meet a series of characteristics that make them exceptional such as: high aesthetic value, age, artistic training, size, unusual species, author's work, special formation traits, dynamism, techniques used for shaping it and its power of suggestion.

Location: Outdoors in full sun. It highly needs sun exposure.

Irrigation: Pines require controlled irrigation. An excess, especially if the substrate does not drain well enough, is fatal for the life of the mycorrhizae. These are fungi whose roots (hyphae) act in symbiosis with those of the pine, helping it to absorb mineral elements from the soil, such as phosphorus. In their absence, the health of the tree is negatively affected.

Bonsai measurements (length x width x height): 75 x 64 x 81 cm

Pot measurements (length x width x height): 46 x 34 x 12 cm

Nebari diameter: 18 cm

Curiosities: In Japan, this pine is considered to be feminine. The light colour, the texture of its needles and their reduced size, give it this personality. It is one of the most popular trees to work as bonsai.

Fertilisation

Spring and autumn. It’s preferable to use organic fertilizers which favour and preserve the mycorrhizae.

Transplant

Every 3 years, at the moment of budding and before the opening of the needles within the buds. In our Mediterranean zone this is in the middle of March.

Substrate

100% Kiryuzuna, or mixed with 50-70% of Akadama.

Pruning

To be done in the coldest months of the year. Leave needles and leaf buds on the branches otherwise they will dry.

Nipping

Pinch-off one third to half of new shoots each spring. Every other year, prune branch tips in early autumn. To allow light into the tree, remove old needles in late summer or early autumn.

Fencing

From October to March. It’s recommended to use copper wire because this tree is very flexible and therefore the wire has to remain for a long time on the tree.
