Hey BNuts,
I'm listing this Sierra Juniper on the Facebook Bonsai Auction site later this evening if anyone is interested, it will be a no reserve auction with $25 starting price. Here's some info on it:
Tree
Sierra Juniper –Juniperus Occidentalis Australis . Approx. 16.75inch tall, base approx. 9.5 inches wide. All pictures were taken this morning 10/10/17. This tree was collected by me in 2011 and compared to other Sierra Juniper, has relatively small, tight foliage with a nice blue color and no pollen sacks. Sierra Junipers are some of the hardiest and strongest growing of our native Junipers and do well in a variety of climates. There is a chunk of granite embedded in the trunk which occurred naturally at the time of collection. More recently, as many people have wiggled the piece of granite, it became loose and was re-secured using an adhesive. Future improvements to the tree could include shifting the tree to right in the pot, adding more shari to the trunk, and further development of pads. Another option could be to completely change the front to show off other deadwood features.
Container
This Nakawatari-Antique Chinese container is included and was originally purchased at Aichi-En Bonsai in Japan, the original red clay is covered by heavy patina. Pot is unstamped with its original two holes, it has not been modified in any way and measures 14x9x4.5 inches.
