Shore Pine- Native species extraordinaire! Share your knowledge and progress with this species.

[River's Edge]

Update on this shore pine. thinning needles, cut back and wiring for progression. Will let it grow out for the next two years and then resume the refinement stage. happy to have this one in a round pot! One of the rough natural styles produced by Jim Gremel. Still have not decided for sure which side I like best but tending towards the key branch on the left.

Interesting bark development starts early.

Little Root-over-Rock tree.
Checkerboard bark is starting to form around nodes and at its base.
