You can take cuttings, but its best to grow them from a seed in a coldframe in late winter. These plants require no pruneing, if you wish you could give them a light trim in spring and autumn. Junipers are liable to attack by aphids, and they can develop fungal root and butt diseases. These plants are easy to look after, will tolerate most conditions, and they are wonderfully attractive.
