Juniperus virginiana 'Taylor'
Choose Taylor Juniper if you need a tight, upright evergreen screen or formal column where width is the problem. The tradeoff: it wants clean siting and open exposure; it is not the soft, broad privacy wall some yards need.
Buy This If
You need height without width.
You like a formal column.
Your site runs dry.
Skip This If
You want a rounded evergreen.
The area stays wet.
You need a broad hedge.
PGNE Report Card
Category
Grade
Why
Landscape Impact
A-
Its tight column gives strong structure without taking over the bed.
Growth Rate
B+
It fills in faster than many narrow evergreens, but patience still matters for a finished screen.
Maintenance
A-
Regular shearing is usually unnecessary, though occasional correction keeps the column clean.
Deer Resistance
B+
Juniper is usually a safer bet around browsing than many arborvitae, but hungry deer can still sample almost anything.
Small Space Fit
A
The narrow habit works where wider evergreens would crowd walks, drives, or foundations.
Screening Value
B+
It works well for tight screening, but it will not block views like a broad evergreen wall.
Our Experience
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Taylor Juniper where the customer wants the Italian cypress look but needs a hardy New England plant. Give it room to stand straight and avoid cramped, wet corners.

Customers Usually Ask
Will it stay narrow?
Yes, that is the main reason to buy it, but do not crowd it against siding or railings.
Can it make privacy?
Yes, for a tight screen; choose something broader if you need a solid wall fast.
Will deer eat it?
It has good deer resistance for our area, but hungry deer can sample almost anything.
Why Upright Junipers?
Deer resistant — holds up where arborvitae can't
Full sun to part shade — 7 varieties for any exposure
Delivered 3–6 ft tall by our own trucks to NH, MA, ME & VT
More mature plants, better prices
We deliver larger, more established junipers than box stores or national online retailers — starting at $149, on our own trucks, no shipping carriers.
Theses trees were advertised as ‘park grade. They arrived in better shape than I expected. With a little care, they’ll be beautiful in a couple of years.

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!
