Emerald Feather Dwarf Upright Juniper
Juniperus virginiana 'Emerald Feather'
Dwarf Upright Juniper
Currently unavailable
With a natural conical shape accentuated by pruning, its branches remain close to the ground for an extended period, contributing to a tidy appearance. The 'adult' type leaves are small scales that cluster softly on young stems, ensuring a smooth texture and a cedar-scented experience when touched. This makes the tree suitable for frequent passage without any scratchiness. Likes moist, well drained soil.
