Spartan Juniper


Spartan Juniper

An ideal privacy screen. Only gets 20 feet tall, never needs pruning. Soft feathery evergreen foliage has a bronze cast in winter as it does now, but turns a deep emerald green in Spring & Summer. Stands up to hurricanes, blizzards, tornadoes & earthquakes (yeah we had those too!). Loaded with berries all year.

Yes, lol, I can hear them squabbling over property rights.

Oh my, they're just stunning. Love the way the light catches them.

yes, and how they gracefully move in the wind. Small birds like to hide in the foliage during a storm

Surely they must be nearly 20ft now, does that mean they just stop growing,haha, or do they get fatter? Lovely winter colour.

Yes, they'll get fuller and fatter, shed and grow new leaves and put out berries. They are much like the Italian Cypress, but not so tall.
