Don't always go by what seems to be the obvious, there might be something better if you give it a second look. Here's two junipers i did exactly that with and made nice little cascades out of them. The first pic shows the obvious cascade, but i didn't go with that , instead I seen something better by giving it a second look as you can see in the second pic. By using the least obvious only because something else came to my eye, I now with a little patience and three yrs later, have a nice little cascade in the procumbens juniper.
