Brodie Eastern Red Cedar

Brodie Eastern Red Cedar (Juniperus virginiana 'Brodie') Brodie Eastern Red Cedar, Juniperus virginiana 'Brodie', is a narrow, upright evergreen tree valued for its strong vertical form, dense deep green foliage, and ability to thrive in tough, sunny sites. Fine textured sprays of needles pack tightly along the branches, creating a tall, graceful column that adds year round structure without taking much ground space. Foliage stays rich green through the growing season and often develops subtle bronzy tones in winter, providing four season interest and reliable screening in both residential and commercial landscapes. Distinctive Features Brodie Eastern Red Cedar typically matures around 20 to 25 feet tall and 6 to 8 feet wide, forming a tight pyramidal to columnar outline that reads as a living spire in the landscape. The foliage is dense and feathery, with small berry like cones on female plants that attract birds. Its naturally upright, space saving habit makes it easier to use along driveways, fences, and narrow side yards where broader evergreens will not fit. As an Eastern Red Cedar selection, it offers excellent heat, drought, and wind tolerance once established, along with good adaptability to a range of well drained soils. Growing Conditions...
