Thanks

I live in scots pine area. Where they are produced as timber on fertile soil they become ready to harvest at around 25 meters in 80 years. The trees we like to collect for bonsai in bogs and in high elevations is usually more than 100 years and sometimes up to 200 years and less than a meter.

The only way to know for sure how old a scots pine is, is to cut it by the base and count the yearly growth rings. Obviously you will kill the tree by doing so.

名媛直播 is about making an image of an old tree. The real age of the tree is of less importance.
