Our New Youngstown Juniper

I have been meaning to do this for some time. Our well is in a semi-middle area of our front lawn. As you surely are aware, wells are not attractive contraptions. In an effort to keep our house aesthetically pleasing, I am trying to hide the well as best I can.

Yesterday, Paul and I made a visit to the Fishkill Home Depot. I knew there would only be a few plants left this late in the season. When we arrived, I was surprised to see how many were actually there. We walked towards the back to the Juniper section. I browsed through a few Junipers and decided upon a nice Youngstown Juniper. Well, that’s what the tag says at least. We weren’t completely convinced that that the correct tags were on these plants. This tag says that this plant grows one foot high by four feet wide. Strange, because it’s already about a foot high, and I just bought it.

I think it will grow out nicely to cover the ugly well.
