Trautman Chinese Juniper

Trautman Chinese Juniper (Juniperus chinensis 'Trautman') Trautman Chinese Juniper, Juniperus chinensis 'Trautman', is a narrow, upright evergreen conifer prized for its blue green foliage, compact columnar form, and ability to bring strong vertical structure to tight planting spaces. Selected for its coarse texture and tidy habit, it grows as a tall, slender spire that evokes the look of Italian cypress while offering the hardiness and toughness of a juniper. With its modest footprint, rugged constitution, and four season color, Trautman Chinese Juniper easily serves as a reliable focal point in sunny, well drained landscapes. Distinctive Features Trautman Chinese Juniper typically matures around 10 to 15 feet tall and 3 to 4 feet wide, forming a narrow, upright outline that stays well filled from the base upward. Branches are coarse and strongly vertical, clothed in dense, blue green foliage that reads as a smooth, textured column from a distance. Over time, the plant develops a slightly craggy, character rich profile that feels more natural than a tightly sheared hedge while remaining neat and structural. Berry like cones on female plants turn blue gray in fall and winter, adding subtle seasonal interest and drawing birds into the garden. Growing Conditions...
