I just bought what im pretty sure is a juniper bonsai tree and i have no idea what to do when i bought it the rocks were all dry and stuck together it has red rocks, moss, and normal rocks with 2 bigger ones fro appearance i think its almost like its int he shape of a gun, it starts to go up and then immediatly bolts to the side (like i gun. i have no idea what to do please help ive heard you should submerge it in water once every 2 weeks only up to the bottom of the trunk by the way should i be able to see a round clump of dirt which i tink is the trunk? cause some are all moss around the trunk and some werent and only 1/ 2 mossed around the trunk i need a whole care guide!!!!

First, did you buy it at walmart lol? A lot of plants like at walmart etc..come with rocks on them all stuck together. all you need to know is this, bonzai tress need lots of water and like to be kept damp. And junipers are hard to kill. So you should be fine. Good luck
