This Rocky mountain juniper has that natural simplicity that's not as easy to achieve as you might think. So natural that you can easily envision it growing on a mountain side at 9,000 feet in the Rockies.  It was posted by Todd Schlafer

A few days ago we posted a remarkable Colorado blue spruce that Todd Schlafer had a significant hand in developing, so it seems like a good time to take a look at some more of what Todd's been up to. If you'd like to see even more, Here's Todd on fb and here's his less up to date First Branch Bonsai website

Here's that Colorado blue spruce that we featured a few days ago. I think it's worth another look and besides,  I forgot to mention Austin Heitzman who built the perfect stand for this perfect tree. Austin was commissioned by Loren Buxton, the owner of the tree
