Hollywood Juniper Pom Pom

Hollywood Juniper Pom Pom

Hollywood Juniper Pom Pom is a striking evergreen topiary prized for its artistic, cloud-like form, twisting branches, and year-round architectural appeal. Carefully trained into multiple rounded “pom pom” tiers, this unique specimen combines the naturally sculptural character of Hollywood Juniper with the elegance of formal topiary. Its rich green foliage provides lasting color throughout the seasons, while the naturally contorted branching gives each plant a distinctive, one-of-a-kind appearance.

This living sculpture makes an exceptional focal point in entryways, courtyard gardens, Asian-inspired landscapes, formal gardens, and decorative containers. Its dramatic silhouette creates visual interest even during winter, adding texture and structure when flowering plants are dormant. Whether used alone as a specimen or in pairs to frame an entrance, Hollywood Juniper Pom Pom brings timeless character and sophistication to the landscape.

Typically growing 5 to 8 feet tall and 3 to 5 feet wide, depending on age and training, Hollywood Juniper thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. Once established, it is highly tolerant of heat, drought, and poor soils, making it an excellent low-maintenance choice for a variety of landscape settings. Occasional pruning helps preserve its carefully shaped pom pom form.

Care Instructions:

Planting: Plant in full sun in well-drained soil where its unique form can be appreciated as a focal point.
Soil: Adapts well to clay, loam, and sandy soils with good drainage.
Watering: Water regularly during establishment. Once established, water only during extended periods of drought.
Fertilizing: Apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer in early spring if desired.
Pruning: Lightly trim new growth once or twice a year to maintain the pom pom shape. Remove any stray shoots as needed.
Spacing: Space plants 4–6 feet apart or provide ample room when used as specimen plantings.
Maintenance: Requires minimal care once established. Avoid poorly drained soils and brush heavy snow from branches if necessary.

Its sculptural beauty, evergreen foliage, and exceptional durability make Hollywood Juniper Pom Pom one of the most distinctive specimen plants for year-round landscape interest.

Landscape Solutions:
