Hey everyone!

I have recently purchased a juniperus chinensis bonsai tree. Before the purchase, we noticed a slight yellowing of the branches, which the seller said was normal. However, we are getting quite worried, having read that such yellowing is likely to be caused by a sickness or other problems. I have attached some pictures of the tree to this post – we would appreciate to hear your opinion on the tree's condition.

Thanks!

Looks absolutely fine to me, as long as it is outside in good sunlight it will be fine.

Great! Thank you for replying

I am not cnovinced. I see clear discoloration on a number of parts in the canopy. Have you checked for spidermites and juniper scale?

I am not convinced nothing is going on.

Thanks for your message. At first inspection, we haven’t found any spider mites or scale insects; however, we are quite inexperienced in this. I’ve included some pictures of the most worrying parts of the tree, perhaps you could tell us whether you see anything unusual. Thanks again
