My bonsai was created by Cory

Hello

First post. Been growing many plants although new to truly learning bonsai

I have what I believe is a juniper.

I have done some reading and I have seen that this is supposed to be an outside plant however I have been growing it inside now for 2 years

Got it at a local gardening center

Welcome to the forum, and well done for keeping it alive indoors for 2 years. Please note however that all the foliage has needles, rather than scale (Some of the branches have no needles, which is the preferred foliage)

It needs to be outside in the weather that you normally have

Why not just outside? Why in a greenhouse?

The green house is outside

It's not heated and subject to whatever conditions nature has.

Leaving it truly outside for me hasn't worked well. Deer and other animals destroy plants. I live out in the country

Either way, death of the tree is likely from what you staight, so what about repellent?
