Juniperus chinensis 'Spartan'
Choose Spartan Juniper when you need a narrow green privacy screen without constant trimming; the tradeoff is that it wants a bright, well-drained spot and will not look soft or mixed like a shrub border.
Buy This If
You want green screening.
You have limited width.
You prefer little pruning.
Skip This If
Your soil stays wet.
You want blue foliage.
You need a soft look.
PGNE Report Card
Category
Grade
Why
Landscape Impact
B+
Spartan gives clean upright structure, but its look is more practical and formal than showy.
Growth Rate
A
It is a good pick when you want a screen to develop without waiting forever.
Maintenance
A-
It usually holds its shape with little pruning, though poor drainage can cause problems.
Deer Resistance
A-
Junipers are a strong choice where browsing is a concern, though no plant should be treated as untouchable.
Small Space Fit
A-
Its upright habit works well in narrow areas, but it still needs breathing room as it matures.
Screening Value
A
Dense evergreen growth makes it one of the better junipers for a narrow privacy row.
Our Experience
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Spartan Juniper for narrow screening only where drainage is solid; if the site is damp or shaded, we would steer you to a different evergreen.

Customers Usually Ask
Will Spartan Juniper need trimming?
Not much; light touch-up is usually enough if it has room.
Is it good for deer areas?
Yes, it is a strong deer-resistant option, though not guaranteed untouched.
Can it handle shade?
Some light shade is workable, but too much shade makes junipers thin.

Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!

They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.

I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!

The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
