mugo pine ideas

shane1130

Hi, I just got this mugo pine that I am going to turn into a bonsai. Any ideas as to where I should start, so as to best develope the basic form?
I find pines, with the way the branches form like bicycle spokes, to be a bit confusing at times.

Thanks, your idea looks interesting, I was not thinking in that direction, I was thinking more of a informal upright.
I will have to rethink things a bit, but that is why I am looking for suggestions.

That's a pretty hard photo to work with because of the background and the fence. Nice view, though!

If you can find a clean wall, try that.

Here is an attempt.
