i have a Japanese White pine (pinus parviflora)and am usure if it is dead or not all the leaves have fallen off and all the branches are very dry i have snapped one of the branches off and it seems to be no life in them (the branches),
But i have scratched the trunk of the tree and under is like a moist cream color which looks like it may still be alive.
Also i have found a couple of tiny white worm like insects in the soil?
its hard to explain it is as thin as the tip of a needle and about 1cm in lenth i think this may be killing it or am over watering it. (how much water shuld i be giving the bosai as i have been told each bonsai takes different amounts. i live in the uk in liverpool if it helps.

Sorry, but it sounds like your bonsai is dead. As a last ditch effort, you could try repotting the plant with new soil. Make sure to carefully wash off the roots to try to eliminate the"worm" problem. Most pine type of trees need water when the soil is dry down about an inch so be sure to let it dry between waterings. You may want to ask at a nursery or florist for advise.

Worms in soil can sometimes mean that they are eating the roots of the plants. Unless they are the big earth worms, I would be afraid of them. Start by re-potting the plant. Wash the roots well and use fresh soil. Then use a good mild fertilizer, such as Peters. If the plant does not respond within a few weeks, I would get another little pine tree and start all over. Bonsai are fun and not that hard to grow.
