Not really a hard tree to grow given the right climatic conditions but, not a good bonsai subject. My opinion anyway. Others may differ and that is ok.
I do think that there are just to many other junipers that are better suited. BUT THAT IS ONLY MY OPINION.
Gosh I hate doing that but one never knows who will be lurking. Might just be a lover of the COMMUNIS. (or worse)
