Tanuki

Juniperus blaauwii
Blaauws juniper - "Tanuki"


It took eleven years of regular feeding and pruning before this tanuki was ready for structuring properly. Much work was needed to make the union between living tissue and dead wood virtually undetectable. It underwent a comprehensive re-modelling in 1997 and continues to improve each year.
