The Taylor Juniper, also known as Juniperus virginiana 'Taylor', is a popular evergreen shrub or small tree. It is a cultivar of the Eastern Red Cedar (Juniperus virginiana) species. The Taylor Juniper is valued for its compact, pyramidal growth habit and its attractive foliage.
This juniper variety typically grows to a height of 15 to 25 feet (3 to 4.5 meters) with a spread of 3 to 5 feet (0.9 to 1.5 meters). It has dense, dark green foliage that retains its color throughout the year, providing year-round interest in the landscape.
The Taylor Juniper is known for its tolerance to a wide range of soil conditions, including clay and sandy soils. It is also drought-tolerant once established and can withstand harsh weather conditions.
Due to its compact size and neat growth habit, the Taylor Juniper is often used as a specimen plant, in foundation plantings, or as a privacy screen. It can also be pruned to maintain a desired shape or size.
