Imperial Masterpiece
After much studying and questioning people on-line and real life, I've settled on my plan for conifers that I thing will help me get going fairly quickly and give me more things to play with and learn. Thanks all BNutters for your help.
- I will focus on just JBP, Shimpaku Juniper, and Bald cypress. These will grow in my current and future grow zones. I will refrain from expanding until I'm comfortable with these first. Unless a fantastic specimen just happens to fall in my lap of course.
- I got 3 BCs in pot and 1 in ground. I will chop the trunk of the 2 BCs in pot while leaving the remaining one in pot and the one in the ground alone for a year or two. I'm also planning to buy 20-30 seedlings to put in ground as yard trees in the spring.
- I will buy several young JBPs and Junipers from a nursery and put some in the ground and other in grow boxes. Once I've learned to keep them thriving I will buy older pre-bonsai ones to get into styling etc. and learn the next stage of bonsai.
