What's up Everybody!!
Soooo just had a bad ankle injury that has left my unable to walk. As I am very active, I was looking for something new to try while I recover.
My lady friend picked up scraggly Sea Green Juniper tree from the local nursery here in NJ for me to to just jump right in. I did some heavy pruning and wiring this past weekend. My plan is to just let it grow in its original pot to see if we can get some cool movement and foliage in the tree. I read Peter Chan's bonsai book in order to get some idea of process, but the style portion kind of passed me by. Right now it looks like a scraggly little juniper - but hoping just to let it grow out and see where it goes and eventually get it into a Bonsai pot.
Any one see any potential/ direction to take this little guy? Any recommendation further reading - as with this little tree I can't really said I had any method to the madness. I guess the experimentation is part of the learning and fun
Thanks New Friends!!
