Shimpaku juniper with stand and stone in a show display. I know the tree is Haruyosi's and I'm pretty sure the pot is also his. I'm not sure about the stand, though I wouldn't be surprised if Haruyosi made it

Continuing where we left off with Haruyosi’s small bonsai. If you want more, you can enjoy a wealth of great photos on  Haruyosi’s fb site and here on Bonsai Bark as well

Another small Shimpaku. This too is part of a show display, but I cropped it to focus on the tree. You can see the original on his fb post

Continued from above…
I’ve become inspired by Haruyosi to try field growing small bonsai. Especially Shimpaku, which do well here in northern Vermont. However, the biggest issue is time; it takes  forever for trees to develop here with our short growing seasons. I’ve got some that have been in the ground for 7 or 8 years (maybe longer) that could still use a few  more years

 

HPOT3Haruyosi's pots have become more ornate lately. If you look at some of our earlier Haruyoshi posts (here), you'll see much simpler pots

The trunk speaks of age on this one. You might notice that some fairly significant branches have been removed
