wintering procumbens juniper...

[HAMMER-SCHLAGEN]

I'm new to bonsai and have a procumbens juniper I got as a Xmas gift. I've had it inside since then but wanted to know if it would die from sudden temp change if I put it outside or in the garage for winter. My garage stays above 28f. Looks like the plant is good to zone 4?

Should be fine in the garage.

After the winter passes I would definitely put it outside. It will thrive there....inside it will eventually die. It needs the seasons, light and air. If you winter it over in a garage it will still need SOME light even in its dormancy. Have fun and good luck!

I am very new to Bonsai. I can tell you my juniper is on my sun porch for the winter..We have had MANY - degree days and been the coldest winter I can remember. So far i watered it once and have the pot wrapped in a towel. Its against a heated wall but the porch has no heat. It doing great..looks perfect so far. its my first time wintering anything..Im in New York...Brrrrrrrrrr.
I cant say for sure but it maybe to cold suddenly. Someone else maybe able to respond to that
