This was a rare purchase from a nursery as i prefer to collect my material .Although not everyone has the potential area’s that i have for collecting Yamadori tree’s . I purchased several Needle Junipers from the same nursery , all had little or no potential , however inside the foliage of ordinary plants there is always a tree in the making  , all you have to do is look beyond the leaves , needles or foliage . Starting at the bottom i removed very little foliage so the wiring was applied and branch placement set .I may get a bit of die back on some of the branches as the were bent down at a rather extreme angle .This is the   finished trainer  slip potted into a training pot and placed back on the bench . At a later date i will apply more wire and increase the movement into the trunk . Cheers Alpineart
