Hello my name is Evan. I just purchased a bonsai tree from a retail store labeled bonsai lol I did some research and it seems that its a "rock juniper" I'm not sure though since I am new to this. From further research it also seems that these plants aren't suitable for indoor living. I also feel like my pot is a little small. If you guys could help me out on confirming my findings such as my plants species, tips for maintenance, and if I should repot and if so when? Thanks alot guys I didn't realise all the work bonsais took to care for. Although I was ignorant to the responsibility it would take i would like to respect the plant and do as much as I can for it and give it a great life.
