Please, if you have any ideas for or against, post them here. It can be a reference that we can use when we have to tell yet another person that their new juniper needs to go outside to thrive.

Hello Joanie,
The answer must be a big NO, Junipers don't like growing indoors, but there is an easy solution if you don't have a garden, terrace, balcony or whatever, doesn't anyone where you live use Window Boxes, these I have seen used with considerable success right across Europe, so try a Window Box, and these you can adapt for all manner of seasonal protection, the only thing that must be strongly considered is the manner in which they are attached to the outside wall.
Hope that this helps.
