Juniperus in Zone 7

Will Juniperus survive a Zone 7 winter?

78 of the 80 Juniperus varieties in the Sow catalog are rated hardy through Zone 7, where winter lows reach 0°F to 10°F. Hardiness is per-variety, not per-genus — the plants listed above are the ones that hold up; others in the genus are not rated for this zone.

When should I plant Juniperus in Zone 7?

In Zone 7 the last spring frost typically lands around mid-April and the first fall frost around late October. Planting after the last frost — or in early fall, so roots establish before the ground cools — gives the best establishment. Each plant page lists its own planting months.

Which Juniperus is best for Zone 7?

Start at the top of the list above: it is ranked by how many gardeners actually save and grow each variety, which is a strong real-world reliability signal. Then narrow by your sun exposure and the mature size that fits the bed.
