This Rocky mountain juniper is another example of Michael Hagedorn's considerable bonsai skills.*
This post is to unreservedly and enthusiastically encourage you to sign up for Michael Hagedorn’s online Bonsai Fundamentals Course.
Here’s a teaser from the host of the course, Bonsai Empire: “Bonsai Fundamentals is an online tutorial offering unique insights into the fundamental concepts of Bonsai design and techniques. It provides important but often neglected instruction of plant-physiology and Japanese aesthetics, deepening your understanding of the living art of Bonsai. Available from March 11th.”
If you know Michael Hagedorn you don’t need any more encouragement. If you don’t know him, what better way to remedy the situation than to take advantage of this golden opportunity to study with one of the very best? And from the comforts of home, no less.
