Hello - I live in Western PA, and I received an 11 yr. old juniper bonsai for my birthday this year. It has been inside ever since, but I am now worried about it making it through the winter (a little late, I know!)

I'm sure that I can't place it outside now - it would be too much of a shock for it. My basement is heated. How can I ensure it's health through the winter months?

Should I place it outside when the spring rolls around to ensure this situation doesn't arise next year?

I appreciate your help!!
