Hi All,
This picture was taken right after the tree was styled. The second picture i enhanced the pic by overlaying a pot. This is a buffalo juniper. I had never heard of that type of juniper until I stumbled onto it. Although after I researched it online I saw that it is a very common juniper used in business landscaping. Thank you ahead for you critique and comments.

It will be a very nice tree. If it were mine, I would completely eliminate that topmost branch, as if feels unnecessary. Not even a jin.

Hi

It is a good material I think, and you've done it the basic style, if I want it made a bonsai, my practice is to be pulled to its roots more, and to develop its thick leaves.
Simulated pictures for your reference.

HI jim and twyama338,
Thank you for your help. two different ways to look at the tree. I have much to mull. I'm excited about the possibilities.

Have fun. The tree is worth it.
