I will add it can visit you indoors but only for a few days at a time.
I have a stand and I do bring in outdoor bonsai indoor to visit with on
those cold winter nights. It gets to about 30 f here so they never go
hard dormant where I am.

Sorry, Bob. Outside it goes and outside it stays. Junipers might
last a season or two indoors, but eventually they will die if kept
inside.

Well, everybody has to start sometime. My time is now. I have looked
at
bonsai plants for a while. Finally I bought one at the local farmer's
market
from a booth for a local nursery. The bonsai is a juniper in a pumice
pot
and is gorgeous to my untrained eye.

I have done a bit of reading on the net about the mistakes newbies
often
make. I am still wishing that I can enjoy my plant indoors so I can
see it
more often than I will if it is outdoors. I am fortunate to have a
large (6'
x 9') sun room that gets a substantial amount of light all day long.
So we
aren't just talking about a big window.

Obviously if I choose to start my bonsai off here and it starts to
signs of
unhappiness, it will go outside, but I am curious if any others on
this
newsgroup have had success in keeping their tree indoors and what I
might
watch for to keep it healthy.
