Bonsai

Won 2 large mugo pines at auction, need some advice on how to whip them into shape.


I'll get a better look at what I have to work with when I pick them up in a day or two, but until then I need a crash course in mugo pine taming.

Obviously I'll need to get them out of the burlap and into grow boxes, and I plan on leaving the rootballs as intact as possible for now and only remove excess soil from the bottom.

In case anyone is wondering I won the pair for $47.50 đź‘Ť (I also won 5 burlapped dwarf hinoki for $18)

    How do I find an auction like this? I’m in Mn

    I have no advice because I have no experience – good luck, those trees look massive.

    Is the site auctioning off landscaping surplus? Never thought to look there. Seems like a great way of getting some big, cheap stock. Even if not the most remarkable material!
