For the record, the common name is wrong. It should be "Eastern Juniper" or "Virginia Juniper". Juniperus virginiana. Tallest juniper east of the Mississippi. One wonders when/how people first started calling a juniper a cedar
The tallest juniper west of the Mississippi, Juniperus occidentalis, is known as (wait for it) "Western Juniper".
Smell, I suspect!For the record, the common name is wrong. It should be "Eastern Juniper" or "Virginia Juniper". Juniperus virginiana. Tallest juniper east of the Mississippi. One wonders when/how people first started calling a juniper a cedar
Otherwise... carry on!

Shhh... I'm trying to work on my shimpaku cedarYou know, there is always that guy..................
I miss Mike!I vary by the seasons just like a tree.
From early January til end of February, I am a pensive type trying to figure out what I will do next. Pot selection, repot plans, etc.
From February through March, I am MAD AND MEAN! It is repotting time and I am a rabid wolverine. My vocabulary is predominantly shit, fuck, goddammit, piss on this and everything else and STAY OUT OF MY WAY !!
After March, I ...begin.. to normalize. I will backslide with inclement weather and/or noticing that a tree is not FULLY anchored in whatever I stuck it in.
April through beginning of June, I am pleasantly mesmerized with the development of foliage and confirmation that my wiring WAS ok. During this period, I am fairly approachable by cautious people and do not ordinarily bite.
June through September, I revert to the spring vocabulary of " shit, fuck, goddammit, piss on this and everything else"...with the addition of FUCK THIS HEAT !!!
After September.... (barring an extension of the broiling valley scorch)..... I begin to become the person I aspire to be that enjoys bonsai. Watching growth, moderating irrigation, removal of minor pests or wayward little sticks.
However, Santa...... I may still not be what you consider a "good boy" but will try to do penance for the early spring behavior.
