Black Pine pre-名媛直播 straight trunk no branches what to do? was created by ShawneeBoy

Posted 6 years 2 months ago #47758
I just bought a pre=名媛直播, Black Pine, not sure exact abe but it's called Size 1 where I got it. I'd like to make it the best 名媛直播 possible. It seems to have no possibilities, maybe because I'm a total newbie and have no idea what to do. It's still in it's nursery container, and is about 13" with a straight thin trunk and no side branches at all. At the top it has a healthy looking but? looks like a mini embryo pine cone, and around it has many long soft needles and some shorter stiff needles lower. I've searched but I haven't been able to find advice on what I can do to entourage any kind of side growth and branches. I fear it will grow too tall, it's too tall already, if I do nothing. So, any ideas about what I can do to lower the height and make it interesting? I've done no pruning of anything or any wiring, nothing, so far.

Sounds like you did not buy a pre 名媛直播 but a sapling.

A picture would help.

It is called a pre-名媛直播. Size 1, which is the smallest and youngest size on the website I bought it from. I will post a pic if I can. Whatever you call it, I want to know what to do... should I wait and it will eventually grow side branches? I just don't want it to keep growing straight up with no branches... I've read a lot but haven't seen anything addressing a straight pine with no branches. I know it's very young, so if I simply need to wait, that's what I'll do.

So, it's likely it's just a young plant without any bonsai qualities. Can't be a pre-bonsai if it doesn't have branches. But I'll wait for that photo.

Don't do anything, just keep it alive, make sure it grows and is healthy before you do any work on it.

Sounds like a 1 or 2 year old pine.

OK, that's good to know. I did try to post a pic, but it's not here. I'll try again right here:

Is This the Same thing that I Have?:?

Purchased 12/29/23 as a 6” “Seedling”. Now about 11” and Interesting things starting with Male Pollen Cones too (started last Mth/ Nov 24’).?

Only Finger Pruned on: ?7/16/24 to 10 pairs of Needles PER Section “clump”/ candle?- thing lol ;))?



But; Now: Explosion of Thick Healthy LONG Needles and Candles.?

Question is: “ Will These Section’s Develop into The Branches”?

Not sure what you are asking to be honest.

I see amture needles. I see branches with small needles, probably a growth from this syummer that did not have enough time to grow out. And I see buds for next year.
