Bristlecone Pine vs Japanese Black PinePinus aristata Pinus thunbergii SOLD OUT SOLD OUT
Bristlecone Pine is a small to medium evergreen with an irregular habit and contorted branches.
Japanese Black Pine is known for its unique and irregular growth habit, making it a striking landscape addition. It typically does not grow with a central leader. This causes it to form a flat-top, classic bonsai-like shape when mature. When it has a central leader, it will grow with a twisted trunk. Another striking feature is the white apical buds which contrast with the surrounding green needles. BRISTLECONE PINE QUICK FACTSJAPANESE BLACK PINE QUICK FACTS
