Hello Nuts,
I found a nursery a few days back that has a parcel of about 4000 square feet of junipers (Juniperus Communis) that they want to get rid of. They were planted as landscape material and have been neglected for more than ten years... rendering them unsaleable. Basically they are willing to give them away for free but they have to be gone by next spring. About 500 feet of them were chopped last year and I had to get them out of the ground yesterday because they needed the plot for new plantings. Tried to take as much root as possible, hoping they'll make it.
The rest are full height, about 6-8 ft with 3-10" trunks and I have about a year from now to figure out what to do if I want them. You can see them in the top left corner of the picture.
What do you guys think? How should I go about this to maximize the chances of survival for those that I do want to dig up by next year?
Given the price of juniper material it would be a waste to leave them for the wood-chipper. Plus... lifetime supply of learning material . Some of them have really cool trunks
