Pfitzer is listed by Daniels Nursery as a juniper, not a fruiting cultivar. The 1950 planting guide places it with ornamental evergreens and shows it as “Pfitzers Juniper.” [S1]
Daniels describes Pfitzer as one of the low evergreens most used in foundation plantings. It is broad and low, with sweeping grayish or bluish green foliage. Its strong tips give the plant a clear horizontal shape. [S1]
The plant naturally stays fairly close to the ground. Daniels says it can be trained to grow four or five feet tall. The catalog presents it for practical nursery uses: foundation planting, winter structure, borders, screens, and windbreaks. Evergreens are promoted for year round landscape value. [S1]
The source gives no fruit, parentage, breeder, release date, hardiness zone, or edible use. The evidence supports Pfitzer as an ornamental juniper in a northern nursery catalog, not as an edible fruit cultivar. [S1]
