Did you know juniper trees can’t keep secrets?!

“If you have a Juniper tree on your property, you best count your blessings.

For you will never worry about wolves harming the cattle or bears tormenting the honeybees. Deer will stay far from the garden, and rabbits too.

And you most definitely will never fret about thieves pilfering from your land.

Because what animals, humans, and you dear reader, will soon understand is that there can be no secrets from a Juniper tree.

Not because the Juniper is more virtuous or honorable than neighboring saplings and shrubs. No, no, it’s quite the opposite.

Rather, because no matter if we’re talking about the Alligator Juniper with its scaly bark, or the gnarled Greek Juniper that thrives on rocky cliffsides, or even the Creeping Juniper that carpets the ground with spiky needles—Juniper trees love to gossip.”
