Hi all,
It's been a while since I posted due to changing jobs and cities so I thought I would share a couple of trees from my collection. I have now been doing bonsai for 14 months and my collection consists mainly of conifers. The first tree I will share is a shore juniper which I have been working with for 12 months, it's being styled as a literati and was mainly an experiment to see just how far I could take the bends. This was how it was at purchase.
After first styling. 6 months down the track. 2weeks ago in its first training pot to gradually reduce the root mass.
It is now popping new buds like crazy.
My second tree I have been working with since May and will be going into a training pot when I find a suitable one As a 15-20 year old stock tree from a bonsai nursery After pruning and wiring almost every branch excluding branches that were a little weak.
Let me know what you think. Mia

I don't know why but it has jumbled the pics around on me oops

I think thay are excellent.
for someone in the game for 14 moths to get that amount of bravery to bend like that is awesome

Time will improve them now

You're off to a good start Mia! Stick with it!

Thanks guys
