An abandoned juniper

[bonsaibp]

On several occasions trees have been left at the gate to my nursery. This is one that was left a couple of weeks ago. At one time someone had done some work to it but it looks to have been just growing for a few years.
Here it is before any work-

Obviously wants to be a cascade so.....
I'll help it along it's way-

It must be nice for people to drop material off randomly! Looks nice!

Once in awhile, though usually when it happens it's crap.

Really beautiful work. Not bad at all for an orphan, huh?

Looks great!!!
I get the occasional plant left on my door step as well. But normally they are tropical and as you put it "not worth crap". Maybe one day they will be.

Sometimes it's alot of fun. A few months back I styled another orphaned juniper and then posted about it on my blog,I had several people want to buy it and actually sold it to a woman that begged me to let her adopt it.
