I wanted to share an album from yesterday's collection. I had a great time and learned a lot as this was my first collection from the wild. She needs a lot of work but I see a lot of potential.

Anybody have experience with this species?

Looks like you had a great time indeed! :)

Good material, personally I don't have experience with this species so I can't help you with that. Maybe you can find something about it on the internet?

I've seen a little bit of information about it. It isn't nearly as popular as some of the other junipers though. There is plenty more where that came from too. The sandbars here are flooded with them! I would like to try and air layer a much larger trunk when I can get some more pots.

Haha..he does his fair share of that too. If it wasn't for the tractor driving he wouldn't have lifted a finger.
