    The Eastern Red Cedar is a tree with a considerable history that few know about. It's also a bit of a misnamed plant. The Eastern Red Cedar isn't even a cedar at all. Instead, it's a juniper.

    Know the red cedar grows wild in southern NJ and would like to get some to plant around the place. It's not in any demand with landscapers but like the ones that are seen while driving.

    They are found all over Illinois as well. They are often found along creek banks and on the sides of highway overpasses.

    I have about ten of these that I dug up along my back yard fence. I replanted them in a nice location in my yard about 3 months ago this past February. There doing great, all of them. There very beautiful young cedars. The biggest is 3 feet and smallest is ten inches. My neighbor has one very large one and I figured the birds must have propagated them along my far back fence. I'm one hour from Charlotte in upstate SC. Thanks for the video.

      +Catherine Gsell They seem to do well in this area - almost like weeds. Thanks for sharing.

    Really nice and informative video, thank you so much! I've added 8 Eastern Red Cedar trees to my property this year and am doing some UA-cam searches that landed me here :) Thumbs up all the way.

    I have examples that are large and small because there is an Appalachian prairie on my farm. The cedars are only 5ft tall despite them being very old.

    What is the best time of year to prune an East in red Cedar grown outdoors? It’s about 2-3 feet tall. I read somewhere at the end of July but I’m thinking winter during the dormant season?

    I have one that makes this look tiny, no idea how old it is but there are a bunch in the woods I want to transplant to the field for the lumber

    Thanks for the tips, I am currently learning how to identify this so when I head out to the woods I can find some. I want some of the heartwood as it is a red/purple color and would make some nice knife handles.

      Doesn't this plant deter bugs that's what a sfc dickey told me at ft Campbell

      They DO make pretty knife handles but I will say that the wood is fairly soft and it seems to soften up the drier it gets. When it’s green, it’s like iron-it’s incredibly hard to chop through. However for some reason when dried the wood, especially the red heartwood is easily carved and soft (it’s a favorite whittling wood around the South) I use it for my Native crafts and such. It’s beautiful when you get a piece that had the reddish purple heartwood and the light colored sapwood.
