One of a few pieces of nursery stock, for education and styling practice - old Gold Juniper (Chinesis). Comprehensive haircut. I like the nebari potential and sacrifice to thicken down low for now. Tilted towards the viewer for eventual structure.
I am a novice when it comes to wiring but am happy with the two. Open to suggestions though.
Need help with regard to the branch that has cool natural movement (the middle one that is not wired) - ax it? Bye bye? Style it somewhere? My gut says to remove. There is another lower bud that is strong and heading to the left.
Additionally - this is a lot of trauma. Leave in existing pot for a year minimum? It’s not a pine... one insult per year apply? Into ground and work on roots in spring? Slip? I’m not sure where to go on this piece but would lean towards into ground and dig up in future for roots.
Any help, as always, appreciated.
