Fall is the time to clean up your Japanese Black Pines. 🌲 In this care guide from five years ago, Eric walks through a fall cleanup on a large Japanese Black Pine he’s owned for nearly twenty years. He shows how pulling needles lets light reach every branch tip, and why a needle-pulling session can turn into wiring touch-ups. If you want a pine of your own to work on this season, we still have Japanese Black Pines available.

Three years ago, Eric asked us to stop doing “this” if we want better bonsai. 🌲 Using a coast redwood and a Kishu rock planting as examples, he shows how a tree stuck in a tiny pot can stall for years, and what to do instead. Watch the full video to find out what “this” is!

Exposed root Japanese Black Pines don’t come around often. 🌲 We have one left from our October release, with the dramatic surface roots that make this style so sought after. There are also 14 other Japanese Black Pines still available, but our pines tend to sell out fast, so grab yours before it finds a new home.

Four years ago, Eric spotted a tiny threat on the Bonsai Society of San Francisco’s logo tree: minute cypress scale. 🔍 In this fall cleanup, he shows how to recognize it and how to treat it, a common problem in our area. He also thins weak foliage, cleans the deadwood, and refreshes the soil to get the tree ready for winter. Watch the full video to see the whole process!

🌿 Customer Spotlight 🌿 We love hearing from our customers! A. P. shared this about his experience: “Excellent experience. Eric is responsive and willing to go out of his way to help. Plant arrived exactly as pictured.” This Korean Hornbeam is a favorite for good reason, with small leaves and a fine twig structure that almost makes a bonsai by itself. Thank you, A. P.!
