boxwood multi trunk

Hi All, So this is my first boxwood, as well as my first attempt at styling/training from Nursery (aka shrub) stock. Im still a little leery of my wiring technique so I chose to use string. Is this a bad method? Things Ive read on Boxwoods.... They Train easily, they don't train easily. They're...

I was feeling down in the dumps today so I treated myself to a boxwood that was on sale. $15 on for $12 before tax. Figured what the heck, it’s only $12 and might cheer me up. The root ball on it was huge and all knotted up, took atleast an hour to sort though then said heck it and started...

So I came across this woman offering her boxwood for free as long as they dug them out themselves. I've wanted to attempt a boxwood bonsai for a while but have zero experience. Before I waste my time, can anyone give me their opinion on the material I dug up? I had to cut off a lot of material...

This is a multi trunk boxwood I collected this spring. Most of what you see is new growth. I won't do anything else to it this year. Next year I will do some pruning of branches that I know will not be needed but not much. I'll just let it recover and establish itself in this pot. Meanwhile I...
