Park grade. These are Taylor Junipers with cosmetic imperfections — a lean, a thin side, or uneven form — sold at a reduced price. The plant is healthy and will grow out of most of it. If you need specimen-quality form, buy the regular grade instead.
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 care more about price than perfect form.
- Your site runs dry.
Skip This If
- You need matched, specimen-quality columns.
- The area stays wet.
- You need a broad hedge.
PGNE Report Card
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | B | A strong vertical line in the landscape, though park grade means the form is not showpiece-clean. |
| Growth Rate | B+ | Steady and reliable for an upright juniper; it gains real height without getting wide. |
| Maintenance | A- | Almost none once sited right; it holds its column naturally and rarely needs shearing. |
| Deer Resistance | A- | Good deer resistance for our area, though hungry deer can sample almost anything. |
| Small Space Fit | A | At 3-4 feet wide mature, it fits narrow side yards and property lines where a spruce cannot go. |
| Screening Value | A- | Planted in a row it makes a dense evergreen wall, and it does it in a fraction of the footprint. |
| Form Consistency | C | This is the park grade — expect leans, thin sides, and uneven columns. Buy regular grade if the row must match. |
Our Experience
At PGNE, we sell park grade to customers screening a back line, a utility area, or a long run where nobody is inspecting individual trees. The roots and health are the same as our regular grade; you are paying less for cosmetic form. Most of the lean and thinness fills in over a couple of seasons once the tree is in the ground and getting even light. Where we would not use it: a front entry, or a short row close to the house where every plant is seen up close.

Customers Usually Ask
What does park grade mean?
Cosmetic imperfections only — a lean, a thin side, or uneven form. The root system and health are the same as our regular grade.
Will it stay narrow?
Yes, that is the main reason to buy it, but do not crowd it against siding or railings.
Will deer eat it?
It has good deer resistance for our area, but hungry deer can sample almost anything.
