This procumbens juniper (9.5"H x 11" W, trunk 1.25" diameter) was purchased as rough nursery stock eight months ago. It was pruned, the deadwood carved, branches wired and and then left to grow. One month ago, it was wired again and put into it's first pot (photo taken right after potting). Since then, it has been pushing buds well and appears to have recovered from all the stress of wiring and potting. Down the road, I'm considering reducing the overall mass of the foliage (number of branches). Also the jin and shari will be refined in the fall, when the tree is fully recovered. Any suggestions for further refinements?
