Hi guys, I had a juniper cutting that is about 2.5 years old. It was doing well and then I repotted it about two months ago. it was doing great but then there was a really hot spell of weather. Since then it is looking a little brown on the tips of the lower branches. Whats happened?

Problem with the roots I would say. Not necessarily from re-poting but from wet soil. Or maybe nothing is wrong with it? I can still see new growth and the green looks very healthy. Wait and see what happens

You have told us what has happened:

- It was repotted about 2 months ago
- There was a really hot spell of weather

The roots are not capable to keep up and sustain the plant. Keep it out of direct sun, make sure you water sufficiently.

Thanks to both of you. I'll move it out of the sun.
