Yard Juniper - Can it become a bonsai? was created by aarondl

Posted 5 years 3 months ago #46406
I have a type of low-growing juniper in my front yard that I want to move. It's in a space that I want to turn into an area to plant my smaller tress for growth. I originally planned to just dig it up and throw it away, but once I started sorting through the foliage, I noticed it had a decent trunk. So, now my options are to either dig it up as planned, fashion it into a yard bonsai, or dig it up and try to pot it. Any suggestions for which would be the best idea? If I were to fashion it into a yard bonsai style, any ideas on how I would proceed with that?

Here is the gallery.

If you post some pictures to the forum, I would most happy to take a loko. Probably you would best try to pot it up, but wait till early spring.
