@Vin good point ,
maybe i could have waited some longer.
but i had time past two days and i have little experience
i dont think waiting would made a big difference for me in the end i would have Come to the same results i think.
seeing the trees of this past contest i know i Will never beat those more experienced People any time soon, but its things like this contest im able to practise and have fun !
winning something would be great but i am satisfied Just by participating in this contest!

I'm not saying yours or any of the other trees entered aren't worthy. I'm merely pointing out that there is no need to rush it. There's plenty of time.

@sorce, do you have to show a picture of the receipt for your purchase? The reason I ask is that I bought this juniper last month and haven't gotten around to styling it, I would like to enter it. Would it qualify as an acceptable entry? Can we put it in a bonsai pop when finished or just leave it in the nursery pot? Anyhow, here it is:

Oh yeah!
No need for receipts or anything.
The rules are loose but following the entry format is required. It is all here...

Have made my first cuts today so yay and have settled on a front and general design but have kind of stalled in cleaning it up.
Should it stay or should it go, that type of thing.
Beer o'clock is only a few hours away so that will likely help with the procrastination issue.

I'm in! Bought my tree at Lowe's yesterday. Will post photos soon.
I'm going to be in. Just found this and sounds fun! Gotta go to my nursery friends place again. He has a motor rebuild coming up so I'll just take something
I wonder how many will be alive next fall?
Good going source.

You are more than encouraged to style and post any/many other trees in a new thread/threads, and you can even put a link to your contest tree with a note to vote!
Now let me go put a name to nameless!....

I've finished styling my "masterpiece". I'm giving it a couple days to make tweeks and waiting for some good light to take a picture, because it's all about the presentation. Bring on the prizes! Haha.

Still working on mine. I repotted, pruned and started wirng on Saturday, did some more wiring on Sunday, then had to wait for more wire gauges to arrive in the mail yesterday. Life keeps getting in the way! I stupidly thought wiring would be quicker on a small tree, but, of course, it's just scaled down, so there are just about as many turns of the wire, lol! I hope to get final photos tomorrow.
