Growing Mugo Pine in WA
Posted: January 31st, 2024, 12:52 pm
This is a thread I want to start, to document how I go with growing a number of mugo pine projects in southern Western Australia.
I went through a period of buying a lot of different seeds a couple of years ago to see what I could grow. Mugo pine was one of the most successful in germinating, so I had quite a few to work with. Since then I have offloaded a handful of them to bonsai friends in my local area.
They were germinated in 2021 and these are the remaining that I have. Doing well so far, they seem to like it here but they are still young.

#1 - Already thinking maybe a shohin semi cascade for this one. It's gotta be my favourite style.
