I misted my needle juniper while in a cheap plastic covered greenhouse. The leaves are now burnt brown. Will it survive. Is there a way to save it?

Not sure if it matters but it was during mid afternoon sun in eastern us and about 80* out.
Please let me know if there is anything I can do.
Thanks

Not sure what misting it has got to do with it, but if all leaves are brown:
No, it's dead. It probably died quite some time ago already.

Why was it in a greenhouse when the temperature was that high? Put it in the shade outside and keep watering, you may be lucky

Well, that the leaves have turned brown it doesn?t necessarily mean that your tree is dead. You might still have a chance. One thing you could do to know better is to scratch the bark until you reach the cambium (right beneath and softer than the bark), if it is still green you might have a shot at it.
Also... why you kept your juniper within your house?

If all needles of a juniper are brown, there is no hope. It's dead.
