This Cal juniper was given me 4/5 years ago as a "basket case", and possibly near expiration.
It was planted in a cascade pot at a much different angle than it is now. It was so rootbound that I had to break the pot to free it. After that, I soaked it for a couple of days to re-hydrate it. Then I put it in a large container and crossed my fingers. Slowly it's come around to vigor and good health.
I've been trimming, wiring and limesulfering to prepare for the show in a couple of weeks.
I know this tree ain't everyone's cup of tea, but when I send the original owner a picture, he will be surprised and happy.
Height from table is about 28 inches.
