Is she to far gone? What can I do to help? Also, my cat has no access to my plants, as they are out of reach. I just put it on a box for the picture.

I had almost the exact same one. Had a little green on it too. Unfortunately all the things I tried didn’t bring it back

Same here!

I think it’s toast. Where do you have it

#### Olivia replied on 2024-06-29

It's in direct sunlight, in front of my window

Scrape the bottom of the trunk and see if you see a little green. If it’s not, it’s likely dead already

#### Olivia replied on 2024-06-29

Scrape how? Like scrape the "bark" off?

#### Brianr33d replied on 2024-06-30

Just take a knife and gently cut away the bark

It’s too bad that plant didn’t make it, but junipers are definitely an outdoor plant only
