Juniper plant

Abstract

A new and distinct juniper branch was discovered, from which a number of cuttings were made and rooted, said branch being discovered on an unpatented variety of (parent) juniper plant identified as Juniperus × Media.

1.  A new and distinct variety of juniper plant substantially as herein shown and described characterized particularly as to novelty by the unique combination of its distinctive and unique dense compact low habit of growth and quick uniformity whereby very little if any pruning or trimming is required, its unusually intensely bright and attractive yellow color which it retains throughout the four seasons of the year, the foliage reverse side being a yellow green, the intense yellow color substantially dominating the entire plant, its unusual hardiness under extreme weather conditions, its relatively dense and profuse scale-like and needle-like foliage, its disease and pest resistance, its unusual ability to lend itself to accepted production methods, technics and cultural practices of field-grown nursery stocks, and by its absence of fruit, blooms, seeds and cones.
