I fully sent it on a Pinus banksiana I collected last spring, roots were beyond vigorous after just one growth cycle! Will she live? Or not..

It will probably live; it looks like you left a reasonable portion of the rootball untouched. That being said, I would have let it grow another year before repotting. You shouldn’t do anything else to it this year.

Looks like a viable Yamadori to me. We have those in NC, looks like a great prospect. It’ll probably take a year to know since pines store a lot of energy in their roots. I transplanted Japanese White Pine last spring before the buds set, and now it’s looking pretty bad… I applied some fungisides and bugisides because I saw some yellow banding in the needles and eggs on the root system… But I’m just a rookey.
Best of luck!
