Contest

Thanks for posting an invitation to this contest over on the other forum. Here is my entry, a Green Mound-Serpenti Juniper in a 7 gallon container. I found this tree in the discount section of a local landscape nursery. Several of the limbs had died back and were trimmed off by the staff. The original price for the stock was $99 marked down 60% for a final price of $40 plus tax. The unstyled height is 18 inches.
The picture file for the before top was damaged and could not be attached. I have included a front, right and left view.

cfdmike, please take another top view pic and submit it to keep everything fair.

"c. You must submit THREE (3) pictures of your stock selection. FRONT, BACK, AND TOP. Assuming you can't tell which side is the front yet, we'll accept your best guess."

Thank you,

Will

Finished Tree

Here is the finished product, final height is 17 inches. Except for a small piece near the top the shari that you see was allready dead. All I did was strip off the bark and seal the edges which had already started to heal.
