Graydon

I like it! I'm a pine nut and I can appreciate all pines. I have thought about the P. densiflora 'umbraclifera' as bonsai but have no sources for suitable materials. Perhaps I need to keep searching. Is this one a graft or is it on it's own rootstock?

Once I read and re-read your first post it sank in how big this tree is! Quite impressive. Do you have shot from above? I would love to see what the canopy looks like from that view.

What does the future hold for this tree? What are your goals over the next 5 years in further refinement and development? It's really off to a great direction with the current styling. It looks very much like what a larger one becomes in the landscape with full rounded crowns and open airy branches just below the crown.

Thanks for sharing your tree.
