Hello everyone

I'd like to know if someone could tell me what species of tree I have here. I was told by the guy that it was a "Pino dorado" which translates to Golden Pine in English.

My dream is to a a very thick trunk hokidachi style bonsai. Can I achieve it with this one?
Also, the guy said this bonsai didn't need any pruning or wiring, but I'm not very sure about that. Is it true?

Thank you guys in advance

This plant is a young plant probably about 3 or 4 years old. It looks like a Juniper, possibly a spruce, I am not too sure. It is in need of some serious pruning and would benefit from years in the ground to get some size to the trunk, unless you want a tiny tree. At the moment it looks like what it is , a bush.
To achieve what you are thinking about will take some years.
I hope you are not keeping this iside.

My guess is it's a .

Not a bonsai but a young and not styled dwarf tree.

Not fit for Hokidachi style, and as it is a slow growing dwarf, you will never get that thick trunk.

Yes, could be a Cryptomeria, not the easiest species especially if the winters are cold. Won't kill bit will brown the needles

Looks very like my Cryptomeria Japonica

I think I have one. I must sent a pic sometime very soon. Ideally tomorrow. I think if I thinned it out a little it would look nice.

I have always believed "what is one mans trash is another mans treasure". Don't let what doesn't appeal to others influence you.

i could be wrong but i think it is a juniper, preferably a needle juniper. as i say i could be wrong.

It's a

to me it looks like a juniper as there is no red tinge on the edge of the new leaves.

I possibly would have said Juniper, but not needle.
