Re: California Juniper, Sumo Style
Mike - as the person that coined the phrase "sumo style" you should know what it is but help enlighten me, I thought the sumo style had to have a real low aspect ratio (width to height ratio.) The tall part of the trunk would seem to obviate that.
I have a few trees like this and I refer to tham as the Hurst Shifter style - seriously.

Rob, you're right. But, some sumo wrestlers have small heads.

But big appetites!

I think we should coin a new style the Hurst Shifter.

Call it what you will, I think it's a cool little tree. It's hard to find Small Junipers with that kind of character.
