Hi all, I'm hoping for a some advice and guidance and I know this is the best place!
I have a Juniper Squamater (Blue Star, I think) and the leaves have never seemed green or blue green for that matter.
I have attached some photos in the hope that someone can advise. They seem to be going very pale.

Thanks for your reply. Do they get bushier and greener?

Overall it is yellow, and very open and droopy. Which makes me wonder whether you are drowning it. The substrate in the pot looks very dense and compact.
How do you care for this plant?

Hi, it's in a bonsai mix. But it is outside and here in the UK we're getting a very unusual amount of rain and have done for weeks now.
Should I move it inside for it to dry out?

No never, it will be fine if the soil is free draining then leave it. I have been watering most days we have not had that much rain in UK. It could probably do with some fertiliser.

Not much rain?! I can assure in South Birmingham it's been battering down on and off for weeks now! In fact there has been that much my lazy spa cover leaked and the actual spa over flowed!
Back to the tree though! I did a little scratch test here and there and it's all green which is good, I think!

Last week was the first rain we have had for months, I have not stopped watering my trees apart from a few days this week.
