The river then flows through Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam before draining into the South China Sea south of Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon). Vientiane (Viangchan), the capital of Laos, and Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia, both stand on its banks.

Juniper is POSSIBLY SAFE for most adults when taken by mouth in medicinal amounts short-term, when inhaled appropriately as a vapor, or when applied to the skin in small areas. Using juniper on the skin can cause some side effects including irritation, burning, redness, and swelling. Avoid using it on large skin wounds. Taking juniper by mouth long-term or in a high dose is LIKELY UNSAFE as it can cause kidney problems, seizures, and other serious side effects.
Cut the top branches shorter than the lower branches, maintaing upright junipers' natural pyramid shape. This ensures that all of the branches receive ample sunlight, so that lower branches don't experience dieback from lack of light.t this time, you should see junipers' new growth and avoid snipping off too much. Pruning them in warm weather also ensures that they heal before winter chill hits, as frost -- no matter how infrequent -- can kill off the new growths that pruning tends to spark.
