Re: [IBC] Italian Stone Pine
If you've got one with enough low branching, I don't see why not. My
eight year olds from seed are tall and very whippy so they would bend well with wiring but are all foliage at the top and will make stone pine shaped bonsai like a flat topped umbrella. Are you thinking of using the whole plant or just the top section? I've never tried layering one. I think they would take a very long time to root from the trunk either way though, probably several years. Marco Favero or Ernie Kuo are the people to ask.

Well, you'd need several large trees and some strong rope to tie the trunks together. <g> Seriously, though, they're hard enough to keep alive in a pot "as is."

Re: [IBC] Italian Stone Pine
I have a pinus pinea from Viareggio seeds, 7 yo, and they do not grow fast
but they make a lot of low branches.. ( a pic can be supplied if required) so these branches can be used to make a raft marco favero wrote: > At 04.30 30/08/2004, Iris Cohen wrote: > >> Does anyone know if you can make a raft from Pinus pinea? >> Iris, > > > Iris , > all is possible in this life,I agree with Kevin, do you have enough low > branches > to make a raft?
