Dwarf Pine Bonsai 50 cm bright green

A Dwarf Pine Bonsai at 50 cm in bright green, with a shaped trunk and tight clipped foliage pads. Pine is the classic bonsai subject and the hardest to keep, since it needs real outdoor conditions and years of patient training.

Here the styling is fixed. At 50 cm it belongs on a desk, a shelf or a low table where it is seen from close range, which is how bonsai is meant to be read. The bright green gives it more life than the darker pine varieties. Dust the pads with a soft brush.
