Hello everyone!
I’m in Texas, zone 8a. I’ve had this Parson’s juniper for about 2 years I I’ve let it recover for a couple of growing seasons, as I had given it a few pretty good insults since I bought it from nursery stock. (ie. changing potting angle, working roots and getting the king whips cut back to see clearer what I was looking at The foliage is a little paler because it’s a Parsonii but it’s been growing pretty vigorous and I’d like to get some advice on branch selection for what to keep and what to cut.
The second picture is what I’ve chosen as the front and plan on doing a cascade that resembles kind of a windswept style but not entirely.
I’m having issues determining what branches to keep and what branches to cut. I tried to attach pictures showing the mess of branching it has so it would be clearer to see. I hope the pics are ok.
Would love any suggestions and maybe even with some marks on any of the pictures to illustrate what you’re indicating better. The help would be immensely appreciated as I’ve been quite stumped with this tree since I let it sit to recover. Thanks all!
