Unfortunately it looks dead.
Try to get a refund or another juniper from the vendor.



Good luck !

Thank you very micu,will do!

That is a stick with the side branches cut off - it's dead and not a bonsai.
Can't imagine you bought this from a bonsai shop?.

Just a ripp off,well i ll never use them again.
Thanks for the quick replies,I sent it back in good time. Very hard to get them in my country.

where do you live? maybe you can try using trees that grow where you live? I've found trees that are native to where I live, or have similar living conditions in their native environment do much better than trees from somewhere else... that can be done of course, but does require some special care.

in heaavy frost, juniper hange foliage colour.
I cannot tell from your picture whether the foliage is unhealthy or not, and would not like to jump to conclusiosn here.

It is outside, right?.

Indeed. This time it was me who used his phone, but on my computer screen I can see indeed it may not dead yet. It's doomed though. And still not a bonsai, or useful for bonsai.
