Kirby: Check out the class on growing juniper bonsai at
http://internetbonsaiclub.org/knowle...s/juniper_nana
..html Developed by Herb Gustafson, I think you'll find it
informative.
Inner foliage of junipers often dies out if it is shaded
excessively by outer foliage. You probably need to do a lot of
pruning and pinching to develop shape and ramification along with
saving that innermost foliage.

....I should have included more details.....

It is outsite, (I know that it would have no chance if it were
in.) I
still have it in the nursery soil, I thought that that could be
the
reason for the browning, but I haven't been overwatering. There
is some
new growth at the tips but I just cant figure out whats going on
with
the rest of the tree.
thanks,
Kirby

I recently wired a juniper (the common kind you get at
the nursery) about a month ago. It's a cascade style; the ends
are doing fine, but closer to the trunk I'm getting dead spots.
