Juniperus chinensis 'Trautman'
Choose Trautman Juniper when you want a narrow screen with a blue-green cast instead of plain green; the tradeoff is that it grows at a steady pace rather than racing and it needs full sun and good drainage to stay dense.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A- | The blue-green foliage stands out from the usual green screen and keeps its color through winter. |
| Growth Rate | B | It puts on a steady 6-12 inches a year, so plan on patience compared with Spartan. |
| Maintenance | A- | It holds a tight spire with almost no shearing, as long as drainage is good. |
| Deer Resistance | A- | Deer usually pass this by, since the foliage deters browsing, though no plant is completely immune where pressure is severe. |
| Small Space Fit | A | At 3-4 ft wide it is one of the slimmest screening junipers we carry. |
| Screening Value | A- | Dense foliage makes a solid row, though it takes a few seasons to close the gaps. |
At PGNE, we'd steer you to Trautman when width is the hard limit and you want something that reads blue-green rather than plain green; in heavy wet soil or shade we would point you to a different evergreen.

Very dedicated and professional. We are happy with the way they planted 14 trees for us. 11 green giants, 2 white pines and 1 Norway spruce.
Picked up my plants-ostrich ferns and blue ice amsonia without any problems! Wonderful, responsive owners! Will be buying from them in the future!
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!
Really great website, communication and installation. Very happy customer and would recommend them.
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!
