Description
Juniperus communis 'Gold Cone,' commonly known as Gold Cone Juniper, is a striking dwarf conifer prized for its bright golden spring foliage and upright, columnar form. This unique shrub brings a splash of vibrant color to the landscape, with new growth emerging in brilliant gold, shifting to a soft yellow-green in summer, and transitioning to a light green through fall and winter. Its compact, vertical habit makes it an excellent choice for adding height and contrast to garden beds, borders, or rock gardens.
Gold Cone Juniper is a versatile, low-maintenance evergreen, suitable for full sun locations where its colors truly shine. Its narrow, columnar shape adds structure and form to garden compositions, making it ideal for colorful low hedges, vertical accents, or container planting. Best pruned in late winter to maintain its shape, this hardy shrub offers enduring color with minimal care and has no notable negative characteristics.
