Golden Canadian is a golden juniper offered by Daniels Nursery in its 1950 planting guide. The catalog lists it under “The Junipers” and presents it as an ornamental evergreen, not a fruiting cultivar. Daniels calls it “the finest colored of the golden evergreens,” with new tips that turn golden yellow. [S1]
Golden Canadian is described as similar in habit to “the Canadian,” but slower growing and smaller at maturity. Its main value was ornamental contrast where a bright golden evergreen was wanted. [S1]
The available source gives no parentage, breeder, release date, hardiness zone, fruit use, or edible fruit description. The source is a Minnesota nursery catalog page about evergreen landscape plants, foundation planting, borders, screens, and windbreaks. [S1]
