So this is my first bonsai and it's first winter. Therefore, I'm not exactly sure of the plants behavior during the winter. I have brought the plant inside as it snows considerably and gets below 0 Celsius.
The plant mostly looks healthy, but most of the leaves are droopy, it's possible that it wasn't getting enough sunlight so I moved it to a location that would provide it with more sunlight.
Any other advice for winter care would be appreciated.
Thank you,

Are you joking? This plant looks almost dead. What species is it anyway?
It probably is too warm. And quite likely it should not be inside at all. But if it is freezing now, you cannot bring it back out again.

No, I'm not joking. As I said in my post I'm a beginner and this is my first plant. The plant didn't come with very good instructions and didn't give me the name of the plant. I've been asking around on Reddit and someone thinks it's a pyracantha. I've been doing research on pyracantha and some articles say to bring it inside other say to leave it outside. So I'm rather confused as to what to do.

Could indeed be a firethorn. They are severly frost hardy. But not a single plant can go from 20c to -5c. So ONLY bring it outside if it is frostfree, and will be so for a few weeks. Else .. find a place that is very cool , maybe a sheltered porch?
