About the Eastern Red
Cedar :
The Eastern Red Cedar, Juniperus Virginiana, is a
small to medium-sized aromatic evergreen tree.
Typically, the trunk is straight and the tree has a
pointed, dense, conical crown that may be varied or
irregular, depending on ecotype or competing
vegetation. The fruit, or cone, is berrylike and
dark blue. Birds devour the fruit.
Eastern Red Cedar trees can grow on a variety of
soils. Its deep roots and small leaf surface make it
very drought resistant. It is the primary species in
most windbreaks. The wood of the Red Cedar is
fragrant and is used extensively for furniture. The
foliage is bright green to dark green. |
