Definately an OUTside tree, also hard to maintain, if not pinched and pruned correctly the foliage to the inside dies off and the foliage gets closer to the branch tips. These do not bud back on old wood, so what branches and foliage you have need to be properly maintained.

If you keep it inside it will die, no question.

De nada!

Leave it outside permanently, Hinokis are very tough trees and can take just about anything except lack of water. If you let the roots get dry it will also die, no questions.

It may not look dead right away, and in fact may look quite healthy for months. But it'll die.

cheers
