A narrow, upright evergreen that glows with golden foliage and adds year-round color, texture, and structure to the landscape
FEATURES:
- Striking golden-yellow foliage that shines all year
- Dense, upright, columnar form perfect for tight spaces
- Slow-growing and low-maintenance
- Adds bright contrast to green and blue evergreens
- Excellent in borders, foundation plantings, or containers
- Cold hardy and tolerant of heat, drought, and poor soil
- Ships on our trucks because of the size of the tree; does not fit in a box
Bower & Branch Landscape Design Tip
Plant Gold Cone Juniper in full sun for the brightest foliage color. It pairs wonderfully with cool-toned plants such as blue spruce, lavender, or ornamental grasses that highlight its warm golden glow. Avoid overwatering, as junipers prefer well-drained soil and drier conditions once established. A light layer of mulch helps conserve moisture and maintain even soil temperature.
Growth Facts
- Hardiness Zone: 4-8
- Mature Height: 8-10' tall
- Mature Width: 2-3' wide
- Exposure: Full Sun
- Spacing: 2-3' apart
