heres a couple from various locations on the www that i found, i had a lot more before my laptop went down and i lost all my files. there are heaps out there though, the smaller trunks on these can be grown in around 4 years, then you can add a couple more to work the foliage out and refine it.
i will grab a pic of one i have been doing for around a year.

jamie


edit - found some more, the last few are from morten albeks galleries.

i received mine today, they look great, i put them in small pot untill i get some more soil for bigger ones, maybe il put a few in the ground, i havent wired them yet but when i do il put some pics up. cheers and thanks again dumper.

Very nice jamie i best get the wire out

my prediction was correct lol. juni arrive in the order i listed lol

i haven't got the time to wired some that im keeping. i just potted them into a 6 inch atm.

these are the shots of what i have done so far with the junipers, i think they will make great shohin bonsais after some years growth.

Hey! Mitchell runs outside to check his twisted junipers/pine seedlings haven't been stolen...


Oh, maybe not...


Looks like my stock. Nice work, I hope our efforts pay off, me thinks they will.

cheers mitchel, yeah the only thing is one of them snaped half way down but i think it will only add to its caracter.

hi simo

just curious, is there a reason you used guy wires instead of just straight wiring the tree and bending like normal?

jamie

my main reason is that the only wire i had was the really thin stuff so to get it to hold in place i used guide wires, but yeah next time i wire them i will use thicker wire without guide wires, but thanks for asing you did make me think, hehe.

cool mate

all good was just curious, what i have done with some of the thinner stock i had, that 3 mm wire would be to thick or heavy to wire with, i would use a 1mm wire folded on itself once or twice, which will give you the same strength but wiring is much easier. (three strands of 1mm wire together. if that didnt make sense before )

the other good thing about using two or three strands if the tree has some thicker branches aswell you can chose which wire comes from a convienient place and then wire the branching
