DWARF JUNIPER 
NATURAL PFITZER JUNIPER (Juniperus chinensis pfitzeriana) 
This is a very popular hardy low bush variety. Used singly and 
in groups under windows or where evergreen shrubs of a height of from 
2 to 4 feet is desired. If let to grow 6 to 8 feet wide and 2 to 3 
feet high may be spaced 6 feet apart. May be maintained by trimming 
4 to 6 feet wide and 1% to 2 feet high and spaced 4 to 5 feet apart. 
Foliage good rich blue-green. Our bushes of this variety are grown 
more well-furnished than most Pfitzer Junipers of the same size raised 
by other nurseries. Grows good in sun and will stand some shade bet- 
ter than any other Juniper. Suitable for all of our territory. 
STAKED PFITZER JUNIPER 
We stake the natural Pfitzer Juniper in the nurseries to obtain 
the taller immediate height of about 2 feet, which makes it desirable 
for many situations, for example, the higher foundations of older 
houses. Same spacing as for natural Pfitzer Juniper. These may be 
contained by trimming. 
COMPACT PFITZER JUNIPER (Juniperus pfitzeriana compacta) 
A variety of the natural Pfitzer which does not grow as tall and 
as wide. Slow grower. Very compact. Grows about 1% feet high and 
4 feet wide and spaced 3 feet apart. 
PARK JUNIPER (Juniperus scopulorum parki)

6 to 8 feet wide. if let to grow naturally, space 6 feet apart. Usu- 
ally maintained by trimming 4 to 6 feet wide and spaced 4 to 5 feet 
apart. Foliage resembles Hills Silver Juniper both as to color and 
texture. Does not like shady locations. 
SAVIN JUNIPER (Juniperus sabina) 
Grows about 2 to 3 feet tall and 4 to 6 feet wide. Prefers sunny 
locations. Grows best west of here. We generally space 4 to 5 feet 
apart. When maintained smaller by annual trimming, may be spaced 
closer together. 
LEE’ S GOLDTIP JUNIPER (Juniperus elegantissima) 
May be grown as an upright natural tree or with the top cut out 
to resemble a high staked Pfitzer Juniper. We grow them in the bush 
form, like staked Pfitzer Juniper and space 4 to 5 feet apart. Ends 
of foliage have Goldtips.
