Pollination Info
Juniper 'Procumbens Nana' (Juniperus procumbens Nana) Pollination Info
Juniper 'Procumbens Nana' is commonly known as Dwarf Japanese Garden Juniper. It is a low-growing evergreen shrub with a spreading growth habit. When it comes to pollination, junipers are typically wind-pollinated plants. They have separate male and female cones on the same plant.
The male cones of Juniper 'Procumbens Nana' release pollen into the air, which is then carried by the wind to reach the female cones. The female cones contain ovules that, when fertilized by the pollen, develop into seeds.
Junipers do not rely on insects or other pollinators for pollination, as they have evolved to be pollinated by the wind. This adaptation allows them to thrive in a variety of environments and climates.
Overall, Juniper 'Procumbens Nana' is a self-fertile plant that can produce seeds without the need for cross-pollination with another plant. However, having multiple juniper plants in close proximity can increase the chances of successful pollination and seed production.
