New Juni Material!!!

when is healthy I hack back harder than this. no critique implied, only the idea of hack. if were mine I’d go way harder on selective pruning of foliage and possibly cuts.

I'm too scared....every juniper I cut back as hard as I imagine you're speaking of, like I see others do, just die . Maybe its a lack of special recovery areas of shade.... I dunno.

Some of the branches could certainly go shorter, but I was gonna do that this winter when I attempt to style it.

yes sir, I get this 100%! this is the way, this is bonsai
and not only that, go harder is usually not the best advice I know..I have amassed quite the kindling grave yard as most have as well. chaste is wisdom
definitely would not want to lose this tree. that joker looks vibrant and unique and I look forward to where you take it. perhaps, because of its characteristics is why the above post, want to see into the future behind the veil !
