A simple California Juniper

[dinh]

Have this one a few years back. Just repotted today. Any suggestion?

Two suggestions:

1. Rethink the planting angle.

2. Get rid of the twin spikes, preferably the smaller one.

Nice material.

I like the spikes, but I agree with the planting angle and it's hard to see it with 2d image. Is this a tanuki?

We need to see all sides of the tree to help you.

General comment:

It's best if we can see the lifeline coming out of the soil. Can't see it at all in the picture.

Needs a lot more foliage to set off deadwood. If your foliage is the kind of California that's course, consider grafting a dense shimpaku.

I like trunk, needs some green.

Graft some Shimpaku on this thing to give it some green, and let it fill in...

Good idea, but where? Does not look like there is much to graft to.
