bonsai which form natural 'hoop' trunks with delicate evergreen foliage
that weeps down.

of the house away from windows) and KEPT MOIST - if above a radiator
then make sure you water on a regular basis. Ideal in a light kitchen
windowsill that gets no sun.

hoop pine on offer (we have only one left) , this is approx. 17inches inc. pot in a 9.5inch hexagonal
plastic bonsai display pot and has an approx. 20inch spread.
