Discover the charm and resilience of Juniperus virginiana var. silicicola, commonly known as Southern Red Cedar. This drought and salt-tolerant evergreen is a proud native of the southeastern coastal plains of the United States, thriving in diverse settings from sand dunes to your urban landscape. Standing at an impressive height of 30 to 40 feet, with a width of up to 25 feet, it adds significant stature and beauty to any space.

Easily adaptable, this hardy tree flourishes in a wide range of soils and requires minimal care. Plant it in full sun, spaced 12 to 24 feet apart, and watch its drooping branches and green fine-textured leaves flourish. The bark, a stunning cinnamon red, enhances winter landscapes with its vibrant coloration. This variety is notable for its smaller, plump cones and scale-like leaves, distinguishing it from its close relative, the Eastern Red Cedar.

Perfect for coastal areas, Southern Red Cedar makes an excellent windscreen, barrier, or hedge. Ideal for native or winter gardens, it supports ecological landscaping with grace and ease.
