Another Procumbens

I bought and worked this one gallon mess of a procumbens a month ago. When the deadwood is worked further and the foliage fills in, it will be an OK tree. In hindsight, I should have jinned the entire low left branch, but it now supports half of the total foliage on the tree. One thing the pics show is how far procumbens can be bent. It's great learning material. I strongly urge all beginners to try them to practice wiring and bending. Not one twig has browned up so far and they usually do after this much time when they're broken. Believe me, I've broken a bunch.

Virtual future. Not a very good pot I know, but it's all I had handy. Any suggestions?

Re: Another Procumbens

Nice, a squashed juniper. You don't see them too much here.
I think you have a great start, but maybe you could shape the foliage in a triangle to get a focal point.
However, I'm just a beginner and I don't have much experience on this wonderful style.
