JUNIPER - Juniperus 
The Junipers form one of the most important groups 
of evergreens for landscape planting. The pyramidal and upright forms make beau- 
tiful specimens for entrance and group plantings, where you need architectural em- 
phasis. The spreading forms are very good for foundation plantings and edgings for 
the taller trees. The prostrate forms are used for ground covers and rock gardens. 
As a family they are effective in all landscape plantings because of their variation in 
form and color tints. They are extremely hardy and of rapid growth. Prefer a sunny 
situation and do well in all the sandy and drier soils of the region.
