Another Juniper Rock Planting

[johng]

Here is an old procumbens nana that has been on this rock for a few years now. Just finished a little winter cleaning up.

Here is a photo of the tree from 2009... consensus advice was to cut off the cascade branch

2011...playing with different stones...

and from the the 2013 Carolina Bonsai Expo

That's pretty cool. Just planted in a muck like substrate I'd imagine. Well done!

WOW I can't see the trees for the forest. BUT you see the trees and not the forest. Great gift and thanks for inspirational sharing.

stay warm, hope the ice did no damage.

WOW! Spectacular tree! Love the rock. Is this a procumben nana? Did you scrub the bark red?

Thanks Si! I think that is a real compliment coming from you...I've always appreciated your eye and ability to draw! Yes I did clean/scrub/brush the bark to get the red color in the show pic. It is an old nana.
