It's kind of a twisted literati style.
By twisted i mean the bends in the trunk, not twisted as in 'sick and twisted' ![]() Al

Hi, so it could be some kind of Literati style?
Do you mean that it could be much better, than it is? Or it is ok? I am beginner, and haven't got much experiences. Thank you very much! Bye! |

You could improve it by trying to steer clear of right angles and horizontal lines.
I'm by no means an expert, and i bet if you posted a photo of your juniper you would get some good advice from one of the more experienced folks around here. Al

Hi,
You can go into the gallery and add the word "literati" to the search box and you will end up with something like this . . . Look at the menu bar above. Hope this helps with styling ideas. Regards, Ian. |

Patience, The majority of people around here live in the USA. I find they normally surface around 1pm GMT and i'm sure somebody will chime in with something...

Hotdogi -
Your tree does suggest a literati style to me. However, long straight sections do not make for a good design. A good design would include more twisting and movement in the trunk. This can be accomplished with some heavy wire (instead of string) on your tree. -Candy |
