Help wanted!



Over the years I have accumulated several junipers and I am sorry to say
lost some of the original information.

In addition, my memory is not what it used to be. In short, I have several
junipers that I would like to identify.

I am looking for a book, a magazine article, or a website that can help me
differentiate the various types of junipers.

Specifically looking for differences between San Jose, shimpaku, Hollywood,
prostrata, Sargentii, needle, and procumbens.



Any information is appreciated in advance.



Cheers.

Tulsa, Oklahoma

I think I would start with the catalog and descriptions at
www.eve4rgreengardenworks.com. Brent has some decent photos and even better descriptions.

Don't think it's what you want, Peter, but here is an _excellent_ key for North American junipers.

are just about all gone. -- Uncle Dave Macon, musician

Does anyone have any suggestions for a systemic fungicide for use on a
Texas Ebony (Pithecellobium flexicaule) with root rot?

Thanks,
Don

Although a fungus causes root rot, the treatment is not a
systemic fungicide. You must treat the conditions which permitted
the fungus in the first place. That means completely repotting
with fresh soil. (No old soil left to contaminate the new soil.)
And that's no guarantee you can save the tree. Usually, by the
time you discover root rot, it's too late.
Repot in to a well draining, soil-less mix into a clean
(sterile) pot. And quarantine the tree from your other bonsai,
because some root rot pathogens are spread by water splash, while
others are spread by fungus gnats or shore flies.
By the way, your soil is obviously not coarse enough to
drain adequately or else you would not have gotten root rot in
the first place. Root rot begins when the plant roots are
deprived of oxygen and/or attacked by a pathogenic fungus.
Saturated soil weakens the plant so it cannot adequately resist
fungus attacks. That means you must start using a coarser, faster
draining soil for the rest of your bonsai as well, if you want to
avoid a similar fate for them.
