Zone: 6BRODIE EASTERN REDCEDAR
Juniperus virginiana 'Brodie' is commonly referred to as Brodie Juniper or Brodie Eastern Red Cedar. This native selection is a tall, strong, narrow, stately evergreen tree that features feathery-textured, dark green foliage which turns a burgundy color in winter. It grows approximately two feet per year and is deer and rabbit resistant. It has gray colored berries in fall that attract birds and other wildlife.
Brodie Eastern Red Cedar thrives in full sun in average, sandy, well-drained soils. It will not tolerate standing water. It can be drought tolerant once established. The Brodie is ideal as a specimen tree or grouped to form a hedge or natural screen.

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in well-draining soil, selecting a location that receives full sun to ensure the best foliage color and density. These evergreen shrubs are incredibly durable and heat-tolerant, though they require consistent water during the first season until the root system is well established; thereafter, they are notably drought-tolerant.
Prune as needed in late winter or early spring to manage size or remove dead wood, but avoid aggressive shearing that exposes the inner woody stems. Apply a layer of organic mulch around the root zone to conserve moisture and suppress weeds, taking care to keep the material a few inches away from the crown to prevent stem rot.
