Pollination Info
Gold Lace Juniper (Juniperus chinensis 'Gold Lace') is a dioecious species, which means that male and female reproductive organs are present on separate plants. In order for pollination to occur, a male plant must be located near a female plant, within a certain distance range depending on the pollinator involved.
The Gold Lace Juniper is primarily pollinated by wind, which means that the male plant releases pollen into the air and the female plant catches it and fertilizes its ovules. Pollination typically occurs in the spring when the male plants produce pollen cones and the female plants produce seed cones.
Gold Lace Juniper can also be pollinated by insects, such as bees, although this is less common. Insects are attracted to the plant's flowers and can transfer pollen between male and female plants, but wind is the primary mode of pollination.
Once pollination occurs, the female plant will produce cones that contain seeds. These seeds can take up to two years to mature and germinate. Gold Lace Juniper is a slow-growing plant and may not produce cones until it reaches maturity, which can take several years.
