Juniper in a PAT K. Pot

Post by Dave54 »

Hi,
here is another of Pat's pots, complimented by one of my Junipers. The pot has that cracked appearance that seems to suit "aged" or freeform style trees.
This is a 12 month old photo and the tree was obviously in need of a trim. It is a Squamata Prostrata ( not quite as prickly as some other Junipers) and stands about 40cm tall.
For those who think it looks familiar, the tree is the background of the Newcastle Bonsai Website, though it was in a round Dragon Pot at the time and had thicker foliage pads. I then won Lotto and could afford yet another Pat K pot (Joking of course as any price is a cheap price for one of Pat's masterpieces).
cheers
Dave

Well Dave, I think that the Jins are the outstanding feature of this tree and the branch pads require a little more definition. It would fit in well with my collection.

Oh! and Pat the pots OK as well.
