tosho_juniper_raw

Tosho sounds good.

Technically a needle-juniper is meant by this japanese term. 

In this paticular case it is a simple juniperus communis variety.

Potted in late summer 2019, shortened in late spring of 2020.

First maintenance-aim is to promote the inner budding.

This has been succesful here and there so far. 

No major  "insults" planned for the 2021 ...

 'Digged this yew in spring 2019 on my garden-ground as kind of waste, 

'cause the fence had to be renewed.

And yes, it is debatable, wether this material is worth saving for further deyelopment.

No, it is not worth it.

But i simply could not resist, to try  to do something out of nothing.

Otherwise, should i have thrown it away? 

Design-options:

Possibly wind-swept, a leaning trunc or even a fallen trunc, as some kind of  raft ...

Pictures as of the beginning, for record:
