Brodie Juniper (Juniperus virginiana ‘Brodie’)
is a narrow, upright evergreen that provides year-round screening and vertical structure without demanding the footprint of broader canopy trees. This Florida-native selection of eastern red cedar develops a dense, columnar form—typically about 20 to 40 feet tall and 6 to 8 feet wide—making it an effective choice for property lines, buffers, entries, and formal accents.
Its fine-textured green foliage, aromatic character, and strong tolerance for heat, drought, and salt make Brodie Juniper especially useful in sunny Florida landscapes with well-drained soils. Use it singly as an architectural specimen or in repeated groups to create a tall, living screen and a native alternative to Italian cypress.
