Enjoy Unique Yellow Needles From Spring Through Fall
The Gold Cone Juniper is one of the best evergreens to add to your landscape for seasonal interest. Bright yellow needles emerge in the spring that last through to the fall. As it gets colder, the needles change to a beautiful blue-green hue. This is a non-flowering variety.
Due to its narrow shape, the Gold Cone Juniper fits into even the smallest of gardens. It can even be grown as a container plant. Plant the Gold Cone Juniper in mixed borders, rock gardens, privacy hedges, or as an accent tree.
The Gold Cone Juniper is known for thriving under poor conditions. It can handle rocky and dry soil, tolerating drought conditions. Once established, it requires very little maintenance and no pruning to maintain its conical shape.

Planting & Care
1. Planting: Choose a location that receives full sunlight. Most junipers aren’t picky about soil, though well-draining and rich soil is always best. Dig a hole twice the size of the tree’s root ball. Mix in compost to the soil before placing the juniper in the hole and backfilling it with soil.
2. Watering: Junipers have average watering needs. Water more frequently during the first year until the tree is established and during periods of drought.
3. Fertilizing: Use a slow-release fertilizer designed for evergreens, applying annually in the spring.
4. Pruning: No pruning is required. The Gold Cone Juniper grows best when left to fill in its natural shape.
