Bird watchers won’t want to be without at least one Gin Fizz Juniper in their backyard. This special Juniper sets an abundant crop of blue-green berries every summer, attracting local birds and adding a delightful color and texture to the evergreen. A deer-resistant alternative to arborvitae for sunny locations, Gin Fizz Juniper has a natural pyramidal shape and full foliage. This is a very low-maintenance, evergreen that provides year-round interest in zones 4-8.
The upright, pyramidal growth habit and lush texture of Gin Fizz makes it perfect for a variety of landscape uses. They can be grown en masse as a screen for year-round privacy and wind protection. Or, use it as a dramatic focal point in the landscape. It’s also a great hedge choice in sunny, dry areas that are frequently visited by deer.
Gin Fizz® Juniper Care
This is a very low-maintenance landscape addition. You will probably be able to just plant it and forget it once it is established. It requires full sun and very little water to thrive.
Pruning is usually unnecessary, but can be shaped if desired. Be sure to avoid cutting into thick, woody stems, as recovery is slow.
Gin Fizz® Juniper Spacing
Gin Fizz Juniper has the ability to grow as tall as 18’, so it does have the potential to take up quite a bit of space. Give at least 7’ of space when planting, and up to 10’.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
