@pastelsinmysky the tree you arent sure of the name for might be a Japanese black pine / something similar? they naturally have a mildly zig-zag trunk that is often exaggerated by pruning / training in ornamental gardens….
@pastelsinmysky yeah just pineaceae too vague to be really helpful 😆 here’s a picture of a real one for comparison!

@Satsuma yeah, this has to be it! thank you for sharing :)))
