International Bonsai Master Michael Hagedorn has a new article out titled “2,520 Degree Ponderosa Pine“. Michael went collecting with the Back Country boys Steve and Dan and found himself collecting a great twisting Ponderosa Pine tree. The article shows the tree being collected and it first styling. Check out the use of plastic bags around the trunk. I am still trying to figure that one out? I know its for protecting the bark on the trunk, but? I have added the article to the Ponderosa Pine Bonsai page, under Pines Bonsai, Conifers Bonsai and Bonsai Tree Information pages.
