What a specimen! It's so refreshing to see a traditionally styled tree not having its branches destroyed for the sake of making deadwood.
Another fantastic production. Possibly my favourite Arkefthos tree yet!
Thank you Simon! Probably my favorite tree yet, as well. As you said, I'm trying to use every branch in the design, trying to avoid Jin in pines. Best regards!
I love all the Pinus parviflora cultivars. I'm collecting seed again this fall on 'Aoi' and they take 1 to 2 years to germinate.
I agree John! I have about 20 seedlings from "Negishi". Unfortunately, out of the 30 cultivars I grow here in the garden, only Negishi is mature enough to bare female cones. Cheers!
WOW 😍 I´M SPEECHLESS
Thank you Silvio! Cheers!

Thank you!
I have a Pinus Rheinhaus, is it a White Pine tree also?, it looks thr same. Great video thank you for sharing.
Thank you Elizabeth! "Rheinhaus" is a cultivar of Pinus strobus, from the USA. While it is a five-needle pine like Pinus parviflora, there are some big differences. Longer needles, more heat and humidity tolerant. It could be a convincing bonsai, if needed.
@@ArkefthosBonsai Thank you for your speedy response and your help, I would love to have a go at shaping the tree, but wouldn’t know where to begin. Thanks again, true your artist
Really exciting decision. This time of the season, just fertilize and watch it grow. Nothing more you should do. First week of June, that's when you can make pruning decision and cut up to 40% of the foliage (if you need to). Just water for the rest of the summer. Late October, is wiring time. After that you are going to have a basic structure and you can call your tree a prebonsai. Details on every procedure are all over TH-cam. I wish you luck!
Thank you, you are a true gentleman and I appreciate your support x
Can the branch clippings be used to propagate?
Yes they can and yes they did! Thank you!
Beautiful work 👏, where did you learn your pad techniques?
Thank you! I appreciate it! Just practice, there where many pines before that. Cheers!
Amazing work, is it a grafted pine or non grafted ? Judging by the needle color it seems to be standing on its own roots!
Yes. It's not grafted. Good eye! Thank you!
@@ArkefthosBonsai Really good styling work, love your videos some of the best on the platform concerning Bonsai! Keep it up!

Beautiful tress and views from your yard 👌good job with the pine. I didn’t recognize the soil, what is it?
Thank you very much! Soil is approximately 60%, zeolite 20%, perlite and 20% semi composted topsoil from the forest (abies needles, bark and cone pieces). Works for me great.
@@ArkefthosBonsai I always used more or less 60% pomice-40% Akadama. I’m from a village north to Barcelona and it works good but nowadays I’m looking for alternatives, your trees look well!Thank you for your reply!Best regards
μπράβο ! κουκλί το έκανες! πολύ ωραία βίντεο!
Σε ευχαριστώ!
Τρομερός, ΜΠΡΑΒΟ ΣΟΥ!...Τώρα που σε βρήκα θα σε βλέπω! Σε ποια περιοχή είσαι; Από που πήρες σύρματα και γλαστράκια, νιώθω ότι μας πιάνουν το κ... εδώ στην Αθήνα.
Καλησπέρα. Σε ευχαριστώ! Είμαι στο Μαίναλο. Γλάστρες και σύρμα από Γερμανία και Πολωνία. Αν θέλεις να σου στείλω links στο Instagram. Ευχαριστώ και πάλι!
@@ArkefthosBonsai Εννοείται να στείλεις...εχω περάσει από τα μέρη λόγω μελισσοκομίας και καταγωγής από τη μεριά της γυναίκας, τρομερή η Αρκαδία! Σε ακολούθησα στο Instagram για να με βρεις, εγώ ευχαριστώ!
What subsrate use you? Tranks.
Esteban, for this tree I used zeolite and perlite equal parts, with just a little bit of organic matter from the forest floor (maybe 5%). Thank you.
Are those native mosses to where you live? And where do you live?
Yes, yes they are. I live in Southern Greece, at 900m elevation, Peloponnese peninsula. Cheers!
Is it possible with the white pine's close relative, the Korean pine (pinus Koraiensis)? The thing is, it's cones contain nuts and my children were given some as a Christmas gift. I planted one as an experiment and now it has sprouted. So I am wondering what to do with it now.
Very much possible! All the pine species are good material for bonsai, especially the 5 needle ones like parviflora, koraiensis, pumila, cembra, peuce, strobus, flexilis, reflex a, longaeva, aristata and some Chinese. Now it is too soon to do anything. Depending on the growth, probably first wiring will be necessary in autumn of it's 3rd year. Now good, fast draining substrate and water. Organic fertilizer in autumn, late September. Cheers!
@@ArkefthosBonsai Thanks for the advice! Is it a good idea to water pine bonsai with aquarium water instead of normal watering and fertilising?
Well, it depends. In aquarium water there chemicals that regulate the pH and I don't know the influence of every mix. But I know that even if it is OK, the fertilizing effect will be kinda week. For developed and old trees that will be fine, but for young trees still in development, you are going to need something stronger, to save some time. Definatly can be used as a healthy supplemental to organic fertilizing.
@@ArkefthosBonsai I don't use ph chemicals in aquarium. But I get the point, Thanks.
@@ArkefthosBonsai Can aquarium water cause imbalance of nutrients? For example, excess of nitrogen and lack of potassium? Leading to, maybe, long needles that then brown quickly? I don't know, I am just guessing.
