Does the pinus bungeana (Lace Bark Pine) make good bonsai? I
found one at my
local nurserey, and it looks like it has great potential for
being slanted
or windswept. Would these styles be seen in nature with this
species? Thanks

I've never seen one, but from the description -- including short
needles -- it sounds like it would be worth a try.

Dirr, incidentally, recommends it highly as a landscape accent
tree.

When you buy it, please post a picture to the gallery. Then keep
us posted.
