Smoke! #1! Three thoughts.
1. "I warned you about those last 300 acid trips, man."
2. "There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind, never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die."
3. "Toto - I don't think we're in Kansas anymore."

Number two to club meeting and dump! Other three good potential. Compared to many good trees undoubtably in your hands these will look not worth effort
. Beginning to see this in self as well. Potential is there for sure.Potawatomi13

Again take #2 to club meeting but this time sell. Looks like Yamadori Spruce. Other 3 have also good potential especially Juniper

Manzanita always(almost)worthy of work
! Whatever other maybe not so much. If wanting to part with Manzanita would consider graceously taking off your hands
. How big is it?

I believe it's not quite a manzanita, but a kinnikinnick - closely related, perhaps. But yeah, I put the wrong photo in there - that one wasn't a looser, and I'd give it to you but I gave that away when I liquidated my collection a year ago in preps for moving overseas. The Spruce was some variety from the B.C. coastline with needles so sharp my hands would get all cut up working on it even wearing thick gloves. Got it for free from Dan Robinson after he collected it and deemed it too painful to work with as well. Some of the other ones went into the ground to fatten up into someting, but never did in the time I had. The willow did what willows do - a war of attrition. The bloodgood next to it just didn't seem worth the effort after a while, given their rep for the leaves never reducing - I don't recall what I did with it, but probably just threw it in the dead pile after years of frustration.

! Suspected was Kinnikinnick but has same species name and flowers so consider Manzanita just already dwarfed kind.

I've had both, and I always preferred the kinnikinnick - more compact, at least the stuff I've run across. I think both have great potential though, with the right tree. Do you work with either one, and are they posted here?
