Hi all,

Got the following Juniper from a family member who had it sitting around in a pot for awhile, trunk 1cm.

Should i leave in the pot it is to grow or should i pot it in a bonsai pot and style it? Also how would you recomend styling this one? (sorry its my first juniper)

if you want a small shohin/mame bonsai, it would be an ok size now, but if you want something larger, stick it in the ground or a large pot for few years :) its a bit hard to judge a good style for it from those pics (not your fault: inside pictures often go grainy. try taking the tree outside to take the pics, you get a better, natural light there). jmho
nice little stock tree though :)

Hi worthy1,

I can see a windswept bonsai in there. The link below is what I was referring to
