Shimpaku Juniper
I bought this from Shibui 4 years ago and this is how it looks like now.

Re: Shimpaku Juniper
I've just turned on Ausbonsai and found another photo of another one of my babies
You've managed to build up those foliage pads really nicely in the time you've had it. Just shows what a bit of dedicated care can do
I think the wild, random movement of the trunks and branches looks good on these junipers and I think you've used the material really well.

Pot a bit big perhaps?

One of the fabulous things about growing bonsai is as you get old and decrepit your trees get old and beautiful

Re: Shimpaku Juniper
Nice pjames,
Clearly you and junipers are good mates!
Might be time now to get on to that smaller pot you were talking about...?
Very nicely grown.

Re: Shimpaku Juniper
Just repotted this Shimpaku to a smaller pot. I have to cut some big roots from the nebari to fit it in. It needs a haircut later this year.
