Hey people
i am after either juniper of ficus stock or in training shohin size trees. i have been looking through the market place and havent been able to find anything recently.
as i am in rural queensland the local nurseries dont realy stock anything like this, they have small young stock that would need lots of growing out to get to a styling stage, this i dont want as i already have a fair bit of stock in growing areas.
so if anyone has anything like this in shohin size or be able to go to shohin size i would love to see it
if they are ficus i would be looking for sumo style, it can be just trunk if need be, branch structure i would be quite happy to build, juniper wise i would like something that can be worked on or restyled if needed, or even just a stock tree.
thanks people
jamie
