Cannart Redecedar 
(Juniperus virginiana cannarti) 
HIS horticultural variety of the Redcedar has long been 
one of the leading favorites. It has deep rich green color 
and runs largely to the whipcord foliage rather than the 
needle formation. If left untrimmed, the growth is rather 
open and graceful, but by shearing specimens may be produced 
to suit the needs of the planter. The picture shown on the left 
shows the result of a light pruning, but with heavy pruning it 
produces a tree with more compact growth and more formal 
outline. 
The ultimate growth is up to 20 feet, but by trimming may 
be kept smaller. In diameter trees may be two to four feet at 
the base. It has unusually attractive bluish and powdery 
berries which occur in some trees in large clusters and are most 
attractive.

N GENERAL appearance this tree resembles the Cannart 
Redcedar pictured in colors on this page. The growth of 
this tree, however, is a lighter green, more yellowish 
green in tint. The branchlet tips are ascending rather than 
drooping as in the Cannart Redcedar. Some nurseries do not 
make any distinction between these two forms, but there is 
actually considerable difference in their appearance.

OLDTIP REDCEDAR 
never fails to bring forth 
an exclamation of delight 
from anyone who views it for the 
first time. It comes out in spring 
with rich cream colored tips 
which gradually darken during 
the summer and fall until they be- 
come almost the color of old gold. 
It eventually reaches 10 to 15 
feet. The branches have a slightly 
drooping tendency. 
When small it forms a rather 
irregular spreading tree, but has 
a tendency to gradually take on 
a pyramidal habit. It deserves a 
place among the more choice and
