How To Care As long as you avoid extreme heat and the ground isn't frozen you can plant your Juniper almost any time of the year. Junipers thrive in full sun to part sun and adapt to any soil that is well drained. After planting, adding a layer of 1 to 2 inches of mulch will help keep the soil moist. Do not allow the mulch to touch the trunk as this increases the chances of pests and disease. Water your Juniper deeply a couple times a week for the first month or two. After your plants are established, they only need watered during hot, dry spells. Junipers are drought tolerant after establishing and even more so after being in the ground about two years. Fertilize when planting and in early spring with a slow release fertilizer. Junipers are extremely hardy and versatile. When properly cared for, they rarely have issues with pests and disease. Mites and scale are insects that can occasionally affect junipers. These can be treated with horticultural oil. For severe infections the pesticide Bonide is recommended. Avoid saturated soils and overhead watering to prevent fungal issues in junipers. Your topiary juniper may need a touch up trimming about once yearly. In warmer regions prune your spiral juniper in early spring and in cooler regions prune in early to mid-summer.
