I bought this bonsai (I think its bonsai) about two weeks ago at walmart and I for the life of me cannot figure oput what kind of bonsai it is, its looks alot like a spruce but at the same time there are qualities that make it look not so much like a spruce and the four or five trunks sprouting from the bottom, what so I do with those? I have never seen a bonsai with so many shoots from the base, slightly annoyed!! Should I keep it outside till the temp drops too ?? IDK!!!

That almost looks like a juniper, but with no formal style, though it looks like a multi trunk one. Might also be a variety of pine tree.

Juniperus communis, and I'd guess it's 'Hibernica'.
