Growing bonsai is a very rewarding hobby. With proper care and attention to detail, you can achieve great results. But, it’s also important to keep in mind that Jack pines are very sensitive to injury and shock. Pruning, wiring, bud removal and reduction of foliage can all be stressful to the plant, so it’s important to avoid these techniques if possible.
In the wild, jack pines grow in a rocky environment with sandy soils. This makes them highly resistant to drought, but it’s still best to re-pot your tree every five years or so and to re-use some of the original soil to help maintain the mutually beneficial relationship between these trees and their mycorrhizal fungi.
Bonsai jack is a tool that allows you to bend the heavy branches and trunks of your trees by twisting a threaded rod. It’s designed to be used by hand, but it’s also available with a clamp or other attachments for use in a workshop.
