Helo Ricardo, i have some for sale if you are inclined to come up for a drive

[shibui]

And some at Shibui Bonsai near Yackandandah in Northeast Vic.
Here's some pics to give you an idea.
This is one of the previous year's - 18 months in the crate.

This is one of the ones dug last winter.

Last winter's dug trees are in poly boxes, some in 25-30 cm black pots depending on how extensive the root systems were.
Lots of trident maples too, including some really great root over rock specimens.
PM shibui for more.

[ricardo]

those look great any more pics?

[nishiki3]

i have about 15 for sale priced between $250 and $1000 most of them root over rock and aged from 15 to 25 years old. more pics available

Very nice trees nishiki3 although not quite what i was looking for, I’m after an informal upright black pine
That will be around 1 meter or over when finished, so a large old pre stock trees probably the way to go with the budget I’ve got.
Every body’s help so far has been great so i should find a promising tree... Ricardo

For something that size you will be looking at the top end of your budget i think. im new to victoria so i cant really help with what alot of nurserys have or dont. I have been to shibui nursery and he does have some nice pines, not sure that big though?. Good luck and if you find one post it up

[ricardo]

hi all just updateing every one i went out to shibuis last week
although i coulnd find size i was after i did get some nice stuff
very reasonable prices too

[ricardo]

ooops didnt mean to submit i also bought the two that shibui posted aswell
and with alot of help from a club member we cut them back hard to get the
start of what hopefully become great trees p.s couldnt resist the tridant

[rowan]

I like the pine alot. It has a good basel flare and the start of good branches and plety to choose from which is important with pines. looks like you scored well
