My Trees

Just thought I'd share my new trees. I am a beginner and was wondering if anyone had any opinions or ideas they might want to share. The trees are: Japanese garden juniper, Victor crape myrtle, Japanese maple, and my favorite - the Satsuki azalea. The first two trees are from a local nursery and are mainly for practice. -Practice keeping trees alive in containers that is. I didn't pick them for there shape but hope to hone my skills on them. The Acer was rescued from under my brother-in-laws beautiful japanese maple that sits in his front yard. He was 5 feet from weedwacking it when I saw it and screamed nooooo! It was repotted today. The azalea I found at a huge tent sale here in my town, I looked through over 200 azaleas before finding this one. I don't know a whole lot about bonsai yet, but when I saw the nebari and curved trunk on this azalea I had to have it. I will post another picture after repotting and taking all the leaves off. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
