Additional Notes

  • Native to Ontario. Eastern red cedars are found in southern and eastern parts of Ontario and southern Quebec. Its range extends down to the Gulf of Mexico and east of the Great Plains in the United States. Even though its common name is Eastern red cedar, it is a juniper, not a true cedar. Juniper virginiana exhibits foliage that can be open-scale or closed-scale, in colours ranging from silver-gray-green to blue-green to light or dark green. All of these colours change toward bronze for winter.
