Looking for Hinoki Cypress

[M. Frary]

I'm looking for Hinoki Cypress pre-bonsai online and can't find any worthwhile. I'm looking for one with 2" diameter or bigger.

Try a garden center you may get lucky.

hinokis from pre-bonsai mark

i just loaded some attached photos of my hinokis, I have Nanas, nana compactas and regular compactas. I have some nice 2 to 3 inched trunked compactas cutting grown in the $200 range, I have some nana compactas cutting grown with 8 to 10 inch trunks about 48 inches tall for between $500 and $2000 and I have some true nanas(grafted) with 2 to 3 inch trunks 24 to 30 inches tall for $250. I have 1000's of hinokis

Wow - that's what I like to hear. Hinokis are some of my favorites. Do you / can you ship to California?

 

[Mark l. Comstock]

Why yes I can, I put an album of about 25 assorted hinokis currently available, take a look. I have some as old as 70 years that are under 5 feet with 10 inch trunks. Many need some thoughfully applied grafts but thats not a big deal. I have many much smaller younger pieces as well. There is a chance I have room on a friends trailer going to cali in may(bay area), I would have to check

Hi Mark, do you have a link to your Hinokis? Thanks!

Thank you for the link but I don't do Facebook.

I don't mean to Hijack a thread but I don't do Face Book either. From what I understand about the site if you don't set your security parameters correctly almost anybody can track where you are any time of the day or night.

Good luck on the Hinoki Cypress. One of my favorite trees. I have one I have been working with since 1994. It cost me $6.00.

As per your request. This tree was done as a demonstration for the club I belong to in 1994. It was designed from a $6.00 nursery tree and I have had it all this time. Last year it went through the some of the stages in a continuing redesign of the tree.

Does anyone know how easy it is to graft foliage onto hinoki?

I imagine a "Whip graft (also called tongue or splice graft)" would be the preferred method.

The short answer would be no. The long answer is to keep close attention to pinching procedures so the grafting issue is a non issue.
