Thanks,
I had a hunch that choosing a stump for cedar would be much like choosing a stump for a pine. From what I've gathered so far, the culture for cedars is basically the same as for pines (with the acception of foliage) in that you have to have very well drained soil, and a stump with low branches that must be chased back gradually. Also, I just remebered I have a bonsai book somewhere with a chapter about cedars (go figure) so I'll give it another read again.
All the best,
JDL
