Very nice work on that juniper mate.
I don't suppose you're coming to the convention in Adelaide this weekend?

Nice result Andrew. You are obviously very skilled. How long did you study at the Fujikawa school.

Regards,

Peter

Just thought i would give an update on this juniper.Im currently off work with a knee injury so i have plenty of time on my hands to get stuck into my trees.
One of the issues that has bothered me with this tree from the start was the height of the apex and width of the foliage.It really took away from the interest of the trunk and the nice movement.
I plan on getting it into a pot in spring so i thought i would completely unwire the tree, see if i can lower the main branch that most of the upper foliage comes from and then rewire the whole tree.
I pushed the branch( and a few other smaller branches) as far i was willing to risk it and was able to reduce the height of the tree by about 10cm.
Im happy with how its prgressing and cant wait to get it into a pot ..... if i can find one.
Thanks
Andrew
