2long, I think Pat was /is on the right track for you. If you can figure out how the lake waters the tree, or is it just offering up humidity. Watering junipers you want to avoid wet feet for very long, they need to be watered when they just start to dry out, with the soil just a bit moist, the other end is to not let them get very dry, so you need to keep an eye on it and water as it needs it.

Maybe next spring armed with a bit more knowledge, and it's still alive then look at repotting iteven if it's the same container, this will let you know for certain what is going on below. So if you think that the lake is watering the tree my advice would be to fill the lake with blue sand, and water from above.

Try the club thing though, you might find a lot of thier activities are on week ends, best bet for learning about our hobby. Good Luck
