Ive only recently learned about Junipers as bonsai, and how long it takes to prune and wire a tree fully! - It took me a good 3 hours to prune and wire the tree in pic 1!
I'm sure with time and practice, it could be done in less than half the time!

Haha, they are a bit lately, sorry!
.. Think I need to practice some of that 'time management' I keep hearing about. .. The rest of the site is still half done too :( lol
- I really look forward to seeing your triple trunk Juniper; I will look out for it! I have a couple of chuhin Junipers, but am still only 3/4rs of the way through wiring one still! .. that time manag't thing again!
