Nice job. I am still quite concerned (afraid) about cutting a plant back that much. But as they say, “No guts, no glory”. You have now given me the courage to do some of the same on my trees. It will have to wait awhile since we are still having freezing weather here in North Carolina. Once it gets a little warmer, I will watch your video again before I attack my junipers.

Thanks again.

I don’t know in it’s just me but I enjoy watching the root raking and root pruning process..but other then that great vid as all the other ones

Hey Charles, I’ve always enjoyed your videos and have learned much from them. May I ask why you left the cascading branch almost arrow straight? The turn-buckle would have added much needed movement.

What part of southern california do you live in

@Zezimaswifty69 You know, I was thinking the exact same thing, but air-layering can be a lengthy process. Though all is not lost for the top portion of that juniper. Junipers can be propagated from cuttings, and the best time to do this is in winter.

Thank you for yet another great video, these are great pieces of inspiration for starter-uppers such as myself. Keep up the great work!

don’t take this the wrong way, but why the hell wouldn’t you have air-layered off the top part and then cut it off instead of just cutting it off and losing a valuable potential tree?

wow fifteen years….Looks good =D

Were those branches dead?… Or are you creating deadwood?

Nice Job, Keep making the videos.
