The Story
Moonglow Juniper is a special, extra-blue selection of our native Rocky Mountain Juniper, which ranges from the Black Hills to British Columbia and south to New Mexico. Rocky Mountain Juniper is a rugged tree often found clinging to mountainsides, enduring in rocky places where other trees can’t survive. Long before it was valued as a landscape tree, this tree had another role in the lives of the West’s earliest residents. Native people in this country valued Rocky Mountain Juniper for its medicinal uses; its needles and berries were used by members of several American Indian tribes to treat various ailments from asthma to fevers.
The Details
Plant a matching set of Moonglow Rocky Mountain Juniper Spiral Topiary Trees on either side of the entrance to your home and lead your guests to your door in high style. You can also wrap each tree in lights in the winter for a modern take on the traditional Christmas Tree that will give your front entryway a fun and festive vibe.
How to Grow
Thanks to its origins in the Rocky Mountain states, your Moonglow Juniper Spiral Topiary Tree is content with tough love and doesn’t want to be spoiled with lots of water or fertilizer. It does need regular water during the first couple of years while its roots are getting established in the ground, but after that it will be drought-tolerant. Plant it where it can soak up sun all day to bring out the best color and density of its foliage. Moonglow Juniper may struggle in extremely hot and humid climates, however. When your tree puts out new growth and begins to look a little shaggy, you’ll want to clean it up. Working from the bottom to the top, simply shear it back into shape.
