Thanks Paul and Kiki

Excellent stuff Joe and got ants. After doing some searching it appears mine is a Carmona or Fukien Tea.

I sort of have one. I have had a few bonsai some of them were very cool and were doing well... til I moved from Canada to the states and couldn`t bring them with me. Not sure what happened to them I left them with my dad. But I had successfully grown them for a year. I have tried juniper ones 3 times they are supose to be one of the easiest - we do not get along I killed them all despite my best efforts. In my last attempt besides the juniper I had another one I can't remember what type it was but it started to rot because I got this fungus fly infection in my other house plants and it spread really fast and I couldn`t save the tree. I did however save a branch from it and
it is growing still so technically I haven't totally killed that one yet. Fungus flies are the bane of my existence.

I'm not familiar with fungus flies, I guess I'm lucky. I know my junipers don't like as much water as my other plants. I water them only oncee a week and they are happy. Good luck.

nice windswept style

[Call_Me_Bob]

thanks. eventually it will take on a more defined style. either windswept or cascade. i originally wanted to make it cascade but it depends on how it grows out.

if i make it windswept then maybe after the shorter right peice grows out some and stays in the position its wired in now, then maybe ill jin that and go for windswept

[Swamper]
