Taylor Juniper (Juniperus virginiana 'Taylor') is a sleek, upright evergreen that brings a formal, vertical element to landscapes. Originally discovered in Nebraska, it’s known for its dense, columnar habit and soft, steely blue-green needles. Unlike traditional evergreens, Taylor Juniper stays narrow without heavy pruning, making it ideal for flanking entryways, lining driveways, or adding privacy in small areas. It performs well in full sun, tolerates drought, and resists both deer and pests. Its low-maintenance nature and elegant silhouette make it a favorite in both modern and traditional gardens.
