Jase1972 bonsaiTALK Craftsman Join Date: Jun-2002 Location: Melbourne Country: Australia Posts: 89	Sargent Juniper Here is a Sargent Juniper that I got for $65 ($40 US) at the Victorian Bonsai Association show in Oct '02. The tree is approx 35cm tall. Any suggestions on the tree's future would be considered and appreciated. J ....but then....Jase1972 found out he wasn't attaching the photo properly and raised his hand sheepishly and cried, "help please" Last edited by Jase1972 : 10-Aug-2003 at 03:12 PM.

Just have to work on filling out the lower branch folage and creating fuller folage pads. I actually supplied soil at the show which was snapped up in the first hour. It was a good show with some great trees. David

LivingArts virtual removes the lower branching. I disagree with what was done in that virtual, the lower branching adds the look of age and is needed. __________________ "Success demands understanding"-Andy Rutledge Charles Bevan Vero Beach, Fl

You have done well. the only options I can think of is since you are totally wired I would move the branches into lower positions a little below horizontal . This will give a more dramitic effect. Shimpys tend to go back up after offwiring ( A word?) so this will also conteract that as well. On the next repot you might could lower the root mass to get your root spread slightly deeper. __________________ Keep growing,---'Nut Lethal Use of Farce
