Here is a very nice article on a nice Pinus Sylvestris yamadori tree. The article takes you from start to finish and its an amazing tree. I have posted the article in the Conifers, Pine and Scots Pine section of the website. Lots to learn from this article, notice the use rebar to bend branches. Scroll down the Bonsai Empire article to see the European Bonsai; Pinus Sylvestris article.
