Hey all, just got my first Bonsai. Would truly appreciate any tips, advice, or just information on my Japanese Juniper and things y’all recommend for its care. Thank you!

    Junipers are pretty hardy little plants, but are sensitive to heat. Give it a spot where it's protected from scorching during the hottest parts of the day. Yours is styled nicely, but if you're looking to have it bulk up around the trunk, you may want to put it in a larger training pot (they grow slower in their final display pots)

      Awesome thank you so much! This is the pot it was in when I bought it at my local Fair. I’ll look into a new one for it today. Thanks again for the help

    Very easy to underwater. And it’s to small to train right now so let it grow for 2 years at least. To get a semi finished style like mine. Which is 4yr old.
