Didn't even think of that! Actually, come to think of it, we have a bunch of cheaper glasses (since I'm not allowed to use the expensive ones haha) might just "accidentally" break one of them... thus proving why I should not be allowed to use the expensive ones... hmm.
Jarad, I think I'll just take your suggestion



There are many ways to do things, but only one "best" way.

Re: Procumbens Juniper
I got the first part but was taken aback by the broken glass. I've not heard that mentioned anywhere before ... Always interested in pondering new possibilities - thats what I'm here for (and the distinct lack of a club where I live).treeman wrote:
You know cutting the bark at the base of the branch, stripping the wood from the top down till you are happy with it and finishing of the by scraping and shaving with a piece of broken glass. (which is the best tool for that job)

Re: Procumbens Juniper
I also hope the tree resurfaces as i would love to see it progress. Hopefully it was purchased by a well schooled Bonsai artist and is still alive?
