Juniper - Is this a problem?

[alexp]

Hey everyone! Long time no chat! My juniper and I have been doing wonderfully, although I have a slight problem and could use some help. I have some foilage that is browning. I has been brown for about 3 weeks now. Mainly on the top. I was an idiot and trimmed it up with scissors and figured the browning would go away, but it hasnt. Is there anything I can do to clear this up?

Thanks in advance

Alex,

I think you have answered your own question.

I was an idiot and trimmed it up with scissors

In the effort to alleviate the initial problem I suspect that you have instead perpetuated it. Junipers are pinched to avoid this type of browning. If the tree is in otherwise good health it should recover in its own.
