Fast Growing Juniperus virginiana Silicicola Evergreen Trees
GUARANTEED SAFE CHECKOUT
The Southern Red Cedar may surprise you with the fact that it is not actually a Cedar at all, but rather a member of the hardy juniper family. Despite their tough nature, these "cedars" have a soft appearance, with feathery emerald green foliage that stays lush and vibrant all year round, requiring minimal maintenance. They are sometimes called the Coast Juniper and are able to tolerate salt, drought, and wind. The Southern Red Cedar thrives in well-drained sandy soils and can grow in full to partial sunlight.
While most Southern Red Cedars have a pyramid shape and foliage that touches the ground, they can become more open as they age, revealing a textured trunk, flat top, and irregular shape. Placing them along a path or driveway adds beauty to your landscape. They are also an excellent choice for a tall hedge, providing privacy and protection against strong winds. Alternatively, they can be planted individually for a striking focal point in your garden.
It's important to note that the Southern Red Cedar is not a true Cedar, but it offers the same elegance and beauty.
