Smoke
Ignore-Amus
Many here will remember this juniper from the 20.00 contest at bonsaiTALK back in 2003. I did an article on how I styled the tree here.
The tree sat around for a while and I pinched and pruned. Last year I think it was knocked off the bench by some squirrels and fell on the top of the tree breaking off about three inches of the top. At this point I was pretty miffed. I lost interest in the tree and it sat around all last year and this year till today. While feeling inspired with all the trees seen in Santa Rosa, I began thinking about something to do in the back yard since the race at Bristol was last night.
I looked over the benches for a project that wouldn't take too much time and found this rats nest. If I was going to get anything out of this it was going to be a miracle.
