Rob’s Juniper with amazing deadwood.
We will now persevere with the foliage to try and get it denser and more compact. At least we now have a good foliage canopy to match the impressive deadwood. There is potential here to create a really good tree. I will keep you posted and if we do feel the need to resort to […]

This vigour has enlarged and extended the profile of the canopy but has also resulted in new and stronger growth inside which we […]
