Thanks for your help. As you can see in my picture its not too bad. Im hoping a blast with the horticulture oil will do it. Im going to spray it in the morning, then again in two weeks you think?

Yes I keep it outside 24/7. You mean cover the soil just when and after spraying so the run off doesn't go info the soil? Or to protect from excessive rain? I went to a local shop and spoke with someone very knowledgeable, they told me to get some horticulture oil and it should take care of...

Can I overspay it? I dont mind spraying I just want my juniper back to the beautiful rich green it once was. Since its winter I dont want to give it a trim, or that would be a good way to get rid of lots of it. I think I will go with an insecticide this time to knock it out, but down the road is...

So you think there is nothing to be worried about? Is there a brand you recommend, where would I get it?

Hi, I think my juniper is getting sick. The other week I noticed that the greenery looked kinda "dull" and the tips were slightly red looking. I wasnt sure if its due to the fact its now outside 24/7 and has full morning and afternoon sun (rooftop patio). Or if its due to the random weather...

Thanks Dave, I'd love to put it out in the garden area on the earth but I just can't trust if out there. I have it off the cold patio floor it's on a plastic side table. Near the glass sides protected from any wind. I do have a underground garage I could also put it in under a bucket so no one...

Thanks everyone. It's supposed to get to -3*c over the next few days overnight. I was thinking of wrapping the pot in a towel as I read somewhere. I could also put it my 2nd unheated bedroom (gets to about 10*c) at night by the windows but I'm afraid of bringing it inside when its been...

Great everyone thanks a bunch. So anyone know of a great off the top of their head book I can take out at the library to do some more reading?

No heated garage. Thanks for the tips. I could just maybe wrap he pot with a towel on those cold nights.

He went over everything in person with me, now when I say well known where I live there are only a few people that sell them the other two I did not get a good vibe from nor did I like the look of their bonsais. Also after looking him up online there were a few positive reviews. He did not...

Ok I put it back outside, it has not dipped below freezing, coldest this plant has seen this winter has probably been 3*c/37*f. Is this "freezeball" a bad thing, if its going to be an extremely cold night is it better to bring it in and leave in near a window in a unheated room for the...

I have always loved bonsais and decided to get my first one by a well known bonsai shop. Its apparently about 12 years old. I live on the west coast of Canada (Vancouver Island) and I would really love to have it indoors sometimes. Now I was told I could train it to be indoors a few days a...
