Since we seem to be on a grown from cutting theme for the lovely trees above, I thought I'd carry on in the vein. This Chinese juniper has grown from a cutting that I took in 1996. It was potted into this 11"shallow, oval container when it was three years old and ten inches tall and has remained there since. It is still only eleven and a half inches tall including the pot. I have never removed or hard-pruned any branches, but it has been allowed to grow over-sized foliage pads which are currently being slowly shaped and pinched-back to better suit the scale of the tree.
