Styling advice on this juniper.

I ran across this juniper today at a local place. I am going to visit the tree again on Sunday to possibly purchase it. Advice in styling for 2016. Thank you everyone.

Ask again once you own the tree...along with photos against a neutral background. It appears to have potential, but not before its yours, and opinions can change with better pix.

As in compact the structure? The current owner stood it up from a cascade design. Him and I are going over the trees design history this week.

Hi Chicago,

I'm new to this myself, so take it with a grain of salt. That tree is just too tall and leggy. I would try bending it to make it more compact (crunch it down) if possible. There's some amazing info here on doing that. Good luck. Keep us up to date with future pics.

That could be really strong material. I would want to see more photos from different angles before I would comment on design direction.
