Pinus thunbergii, commonly known as Black Pine or Japanese Black Pine, is a fast-growing evergreen conifer native to coastal areas of Japan and Korea. It’s widely valued in ornamental landscapes for its rugged, windswept form, dark green needles, and tolerance to harsh conditions such as salt spray and drought. Growing 20 to 60 feet tall with an irregular, open habit, Black Pine is often used as a specimen tree, bonsai subject, or for coastal plantings.

Japanese Black Pine is a medium to large evergreen conifer, typically growing 20 to 60 feet tall with a spread of 20 to 40 feet. In cultivation, especially when pruned or bonsai-trained, it often remains smaller and more compact. It has an irregular, picturesque form, often with a flattened crown as it matures.
Japanese Black Pine thrives in full sun, requiring at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. It prefers well-drained, sandy soils and is highly tolerant of poor soils, drought, wind, and salt spray, making it an excellent choice for coastal gardens or urban settings.
Yes! Japanese Black Pine is especially salt-tolerant and thrives in coastal environments. Its tolerance to wind and salt spray makes it ideal for dune stabilization and windbreaks along the coast. It’s commonly used in beach landscapes and coastal barrier plantings.
Japanese Black Pine can be low-maintenance, but it’s often pruned for shape in ornamental gardens and bonsai. Regular candle pruning encourages dense branching and compact growth. It’s also important to remove dead or diseased branches to maintain tree health.
While hardy and adaptable, Japanese Black Pine can be susceptible to pine wilt disease, caused by pinewood nematodes, and insect pests like pine sawflies and scale insects. Planting in well-drained soils, ensuring good air circulation, and maintaining overall plant health can help reduce the risk of problems.

We truly hate to pause things, but with the extreme heat and the holiday weekend, we’ve had to suspend all shipping until Monday, July 7th.
Right now, it’s just too hot for the plants to survive more than 48 hours in a shipping box, and we’d never want to send them out in conditions that could harm them.
We’re really sorry for the delay and any inconvenience this may cause. Thank you for your patience and for caring as much about these plants as we do.
