Save my bonsai

[AverageBonsai]

Hey everyone! I’ve had this Spruce for a little over a year now and never had any problems. Lately I’ve been seeing the color get duller and really brittle. Not sure what my issue is here.. too much sun/water? Not enough? Is it time to repot? Has never been a high maintenance bonsai but I’m really hoping I get it back looking healthy and strong. Any tips would be great thanks!

You've been keeping it inside and it's dead. That's what's wrong with it.

Funny looking spruce! What type of spruce do you really have there? Looks a lot like a procumbens juniper, must be a new spruce cultivar.

Juniper procumbens “nana”

You’ve kept it inside. It’s now dead

All conifers need to be outside 100% of the time

Sorry. You’re not the first nor the last to be fleeced by these people selling bonsai at the mall or roadside

I really wish something can be done about those people. Arrested and fined

Is there a great indoor bonsai that anyone would recommend?

Any of the small leaf ficus (Microcarpa, benjamina, retusa and Gensing ) does well, Schefflera arboricola (dwarf umbrella tree) does ok. Portulacaria afra (elephant bush) does well, Crassula ovata (jade plant) does good also. It will also help if you add your location so the fine folk here can give you location specific recommendations. Do you have the ability to keep a plant outside?
