Masterpiece
Well,,, almost 1/4 of the way of going through all my overgrown trees...Japanese garden juniper..
This tree was somewhat tough to work on.. All the main branches were too long for the tree. I had to cut and wire a new leader on most of them. On some it was difficult because there were not that many branches to begin with... It does look a bit more balanced than it did.. However, in a few years when the trunk thickens more, it should all work out..I will need to keep an eye on the first beanch on the right... It is very week and has very little foliage...For now, it will stay in this over sized bonsai pot that it was put i nlast year for another year or so....
Pic 1 is the tree out of winter storage
As always...comments and criticisms welcome...
