Mini exposed root Juniper
G’day Taipan and all,
Here is the 1st posting of one of my smallest guys. A small, Dutch yamadori, exposed-root, Juniperus communis in a Tokoname pot. Height of the tree is 9cm [3 ½”] from the pot rim. Nigel

Nice Mame
It is a nice Mame-bonsai (It is categorized as a Mame when it is below 10 cm in height).
It can be developed to fine Neagari, root-exposed, tree in a relative short time. I might consider changing the pot to a brown or blue container that suits the green colours of the needles better. The bright white pot attracts the eye a little to much. The white pot can be used for a flower or fruit bearing specimen very well. The Neagari style is a very elegant style I think; and it allows us to use thinner trunks than else seems appropriate, especially in the Mame size. Kind regards Morten Albek |

G'day Albek,
Of course you're right about the pot, but it was at the time the only one I had, sizewise, if my Cotoneaster microphyllus survives thru the coming winter then it shall go into the white pot in spring, and I shall have to dig deep and find something else for the Juniper. My small balcony is so over crowded, and I have quite a few small ones on the go, but because of the overcrowding I am forced to put some of my trees into larger or even taller pots, so that they may squeeze in and overhang. Thank you for your comments. Nigel
