my OLD ugly San Jose' junipers

Ok, don't laugh........ I have been playing with bonsai for 35 years. I started this first old san jose' nearly 30 years ago from a cutting. It has gone through several "reversals of fortune" over the years. I apologize for not giving it a trim before the photograph but I have been meaning to post it for ages and just recently had some free time so I just grabbed the camera and shot.

This will never be a great bonsai but it is a sentimental favorite just the same.

It is over potted as the last repot was done before I had the drip system. I overpotted to protect against drying out too fast in our brutal summers. Next repot I am looking for a smaller pot to put it in. It is larger than it looks in the photo...probably about 16 to 18 inches tall.
