Description

Dazzling variegated leaves distinguish the Juliet Cleyera from all others. The colorful new growth on this selection features attractive maroon leaves with pink borders that age to a glossy variegated green and white. A slow to moderate grower, Juliet can be left to grow naturally as a shrub that is full to the ground or lower branches can be removed to form a very attractive small tree. An excellent accent in home foundation plantings or low maintenance hedge that can be maintained as low as 5 feet in height.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing 6 to 10 feet tall and 4 to 6 feet wide depending on pruning, the Juliet Cleyera is ideal for use as an accent, to frame corners, or to fill large spaces between windows and open walls in home foundation plantings. It also serves as a very attractive evergreen hedge or background in sunny to partially shaded landscape borders. Remove lower branches and you have a very attractive small tree useful as a specimen in sunny to partly shaded areas. A fine addition to tropical look gardens and Xeriscape gardens (low water needs).

Suggested Spacing: 4 feet apart for solid hedges; 8 feet or more for space between plants

Note: For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 7a, where this Cleyera variety is not reliably winter hardy, you’ll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.

Growing Preferences

Juliet Cleyera is easy to grow in a range of soils and full sun to part shade. She prefers a moist but well-drained soil however is exceptionally tolerant of dry soil conditions when established. Cleyera do not require pruning, however can be pruned to a formal shape or to form a small tree.
