Taylor Juniper Tree – Narrow Columnar Evergreen for Privacy

Juniperus virginiana ‘Taylor’

The Taylor Juniper Tree is one of the best narrow evergreen trees for privacy and vertical landscaping. With its tall, slender shape and dense blue-green foliage, this hardy evergreen creates an elegant natural screen without taking up much space.

Perfect for property line privacy, driveway borders, windbreaks, and modern landscape design, Taylor Junipers grow upright with a naturally tight columnar form, meaning they require little to no pruning to maintain their shape.

Because of their exceptional cold hardiness and drought tolerance, Taylor Junipers perform extremely well in Ontario landscapes, making them a favorite for homeowners looking for low-maintenance evergreen privacy trees.

At Niagara Tree Company, our Taylor Junipers are nursery grown for strong root systems and healthy growth, ensuring they establish quickly after planting.
