[IBC] Blue Bottle Juniper
Allen:
I am not familiar with the Blue Bottle Juniper, but I would put them in the ground (on top of a couple ceramic tiles) for at least a year, and let them recover from the miss handling. Once in the ground, you can do a little pinching and pruning letting light get into the interior of the tree. The tree will tell you when to prune by its new growth..... You can dig them up next year turn them around and put them back in the ground for another year if necessary. It is worth the wait! Carl L.

They had put a bunch of 2.5 - 3 foot tall "Blue Bottle Junipers" out to mulch, and gave them to me. THey look pretty healthy, tho a bit raggedy. I attribute this to improper winterizing, though after repotting them, i'm still going to give them a month to 6 weeks to come around or die before i start working on them. Is this a species i should avoid ... maybe just put these guys in the ground in my yard, or are they good bonsai stock ? ************************************************** ****************************** ++++Sponsored, in part, by Ken Rutledge++++ ************************************************** ****************************** -- The IBC HOME PAGE & FAQ: http://www.internetbonsaiclub.org/ -- +++++ Questions?

[IBC] Blue Bottle Juniper
I am not familiar with the Blue Bottle Juniper
Could it be "Blue vase" and it referes to shape and color. Larger at top than bottom and with a slight blue tinge to the foliage.
