Collected (Yamadori) California Juniper Bonsai, Repotting After 14 Years

I acquired this tree three years ago. It was collected in 1996 from Southern California and styled in 2009 by the previous owner, who passed away. It is now my turn to continue developing the tree to try and reach the full potential that it has. This is how bonsai is sometimes.
My plan is to graft more shimpaku foliage once the tree is a little stronger. It has not been repotted for 14+ years, so it is way overdue. Next year, if it is growing well, I'll resume graphing. Once grafting is completed the new foliage they will grow to replace the native foliage. Then more growing and styling. It will be at least 8-10 year process!

Such a dramatic tree

Yeah, I really think it will be very interesting once the shape comes together. It can be hard to see right now.

Sir very nice Work getting it cleaned and cut back unwanted Roots , Am I wrong in saying this Bonsai Tree not a Cascade Bonsai Tree? I Nice large Oval pot in a sweet Tan color with gold trim be sweet. Maybe in three to Five Years Us Fans Can Buy the Right Bonsai Pot. For Her Roots get more freedom.

Thanks gregory h! Yes, I would say it is a cascade/simi-cascade as it dips below the top of the pot. Interesting idea in the pot type!

@@bonsaitimelapse thanks so much for your reply. I would love to find a smaller California Juniper that I could raise in Ohio. Are you in California? Or know someone in Arizona? Do you have any Shohin Bonsai Trees?

[@bonsaitimelapse]

Small California junipers are pretty rare, most are medium to large since the are collected. I'm in California and don't have many shohin trees. You can check out my teacher's website, Peter Tea, he sells tree and will ship. Not much is listed right now, but check back often, his inventory changes a lot. www.ptbonsai.com/
