How do you make a black pine bonsai? A master teaches you step by step

I first got a black pine tree, slanting curved trunk style, and it has been kept for more than two years. The tree shape is chaotic, with a tangled branch on the side, and dense dry branches, becoming fewer and fewer. The plant's roots and trunk are relatively thick, and from the roots upward, the scales are stacked. They are simple yet full of vitality. Preliminary idea: there are multiple branches at the top of the crown, which can be handled by layering. The overall trend of the whole tree is twisting and turning. The upper branches and foliage are mainly "gathered." The lower layer of the upper branches and the upper branches and foliage form a preliminary shape, change the pot (fill the pot with soil), and clean the pot surface into a "scattered" style. The whole tree shape is imposing and can be used as a "cloud type." The upper and lower branches of the rear tree are horizontal and level, and the lower branches have already turned toward the front side, becoming candidate "floating branches." The longer side branches at the upper top can be transferred to the "extension branch" of the trunk for use at the top, and the remaining branches are cut and trimmed into cloud-like side branches.

The process of creation first goes to the trunk and branches, and then to the later sequence. After cutting, remove excess branches and long branches, and determine the floating branch after the main stem. The branches are arranged in order from top to bottom, from inside to outside, and from front, thick, to thin. The main coil and secondary coil bundles select the corresponding coil thickness. The upper part of the crown is the whole tree, and the layout is reasonable. The highest trend of the crown and the overall trend are unified. Adjust the primary and secondary coils according to the tree density and the upper and lower change trends, thereby changing the upper and lower layers while unifying them.

Choose a purple clay pot of suitable size as the planting pot, and cover the drainage hole at the bottom with mesh to prevent leakage. Then add a small amount of coarse sand to the bottom of the pot for drainage. After completing the preliminary shaping, clean the original flower pot surface, remove soil and weeds, make the black roots rise, and reveal the beautiful hanging roots and claws.

Close to the pool wall, loosen the pot soil so that the soil ball and the original pot can be easily separated. Pinus thunbergii has produced a new plant.

Remove the soil ball of Pinus thunbergii, compare it with the old soil and tree roots, then place it in a new planting pot, adjust the posture of the tree body, fill with nutrient soil, and use a sharp stick and soil bucket to tamp the soil around the soil ball, so that water and a cool place allow normal maintenance and management.
