good afternoon!
This is my first post on here so please bare with me. I have what I believe is a juniper bonsai tree. I got it last August as a present and don't know much about its age or origin.
I did some research and tried my best to follow a watering plan to help the tree grow and get the nutrients it needs. I read a lot of places to put the tree somewhere cool and dark during the cold winter months, so I kept it in my garage.
I took t out this weekend and noticed it was brown, yellow and not looking all that great. I did some more reading and today I repotted the plant with some better soil than came with it.
I was too new to the hobby last year to feel comfortable trimming, pruning or shaping the tree at all. I merely tried to keep it alive.
Is my tree dead/dying? Is it just coming to life since being the garage? I'd also like some advice on when or if I should be pruning or shaping the tree at all. Watering I don't think is an issue as it rains a decent amount and it doesn't appear to have a drainage issue.
Any and all advice to help my little tree back to its glory days are much appreciated.
