I've found myself in a sticky situation. I may be moving into an apartment with no outdoor space. I absolutely do not want to loose my trees. I have two young junipers and three elms. My question is, what would I need to keep them alive for a year with no outdoor space. What lights have you all used what would you recommend, what are some issues you think I may have, or is it even possible at all. I am mostly worried about my junipers because I know indoors is usually a no....but is it possible?
Junipers will die indoors. Period. It is theoretically possible to keep one alive indoors, or so we think. I once read somewhere, somebody manage to keep a Juniper indoors alive for a few years. The amount of work, thought, and investment, that went into keeping that tree alive indoors was insane, and even then, after a few years, the tree started dying.
As Auk said, your only realistic option is to find a host.
