Juniper Procumbens And Six Hours Wiring

I finally decided to bite the bullet and devote some long hours to getting this procumbens to look like I wanted it to. I purchased this one along with another last April. This one was looking kind of weak at the time but I figured if I didn't do anything with it for a year, hopefully it would come around which it did. I knew it would take some time wiring and cleaning up, so I just dug in. Here's the result of six hours work.

Posts: 1,011	Fred, Yeah I do like the pot, but I don't know if I will keep it for this tree. When I originally purchased the tree the branch you see on the lower right was actually longer and hanging over so as to look somewhat like a semi cascade look. I removed part of it after a few months but I had purchased this pot for that reason. And yes it is a bit too big for the tree. As I mentioned above the tree was kind of weak also when I purchased it, so the deep pot was also used for root expansion to try and bring it back which it did. The tree has put out some really good looking buds already, even before some of my other procumbens. Thanks __________________ Thomas J.
