Adult and Juvenile Foliage
Pfitzer Juniper – Juniperus chinensis ‘Pfitzeriana’
Oregon State University
• Two types of foliage on most junipers.
• Adult foliage is scaled – juvenile foliage is needled – in whorls of 3, similar to the common juniper we saw earlier. Usually this juvenile foliage is near the bottom of the shrub. It’s very sharp and prickley. Some people have an allergic reaction to it.

Male Pollen Cones on Juniper Castlewood Canyon – photo by Linda Smith
• Junipers are dioecious, meaning each plant is either a male plant, with pollen cones only…..,
![Page 6: Woody Plants Group 7a](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102901/5553f0a7b4c90544428b4827/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• …or it is a female plant, with female cones only. The cones of juniper look like berries…
• But the scales of the cone are fused together and have become fleshy, not woody like other members of the cypress family.
• Cedar waxwings love this fruit. Gin can been made from this fruit. Each ‘cone’, depending on the species, will have from 1 to 5 seeds within the cone.
• Juniperus monosperma – one seed – upright juniper.

Junipers don’t have buds – the new growth is produced from meristematic tissues under the “skin” of the twig.

• Arborvitae - L’Arbre de Vie – Tree of Life • In the 16th century in the St. Lawrence Valley of NY,
Cartier and his men developed scurvy. The local Indians brewed a tea from the foliage of the native arborvitae and saved their lives.
• The oriental arborvitae’s most identifiable feature is the vertical foliage sprays. Look as though they’ve been ironed, or pressed between the pages of a book. They could be spread out and would make a carpet, whereas juniper branches are bushy, not flat, and wouldn’t make a very good carpet.
• No buds, like juniper.• Fruit not as berry-like as juniper – has scales that peel
back somewhat, sometimes becoming woody.

• Home Depot and Lowe’s sell this plant a lot.

Cedar of LebanonCedrus libani
North Carolina State University
Juniper and Arborvitae are in the Cypress Family – not
Cedar.
There’s only one true cedar – the Cedar of Lebanon which is
in the Pine Family.
