Many a tasty beer at Juniper Brewing in Redmond, Oregon. There wasn't a bad one in the bunch. Our favorite was definitely the Karol Alt but other great ones were the Central Oregon Citra Summer Ale, Tap Root Red & Old Roy IPA. We'll definitely be back!

JUNIPER HAIRSTREAK BUTTERFLY-07252684
Juniper Cottage, located adjacent to the Blue Heron Cruises Ticket Office at Highway 6 and Hay Bay Road, Tobermory, Ontario, Canada.
This Utah juniper, growing on the edge of a cliff, is typical of many junipers in the area. Most have multiple trunks, and lots of deadwood. To your left is a small cairn, or trail marker, so hikers know where they are going. To your right is a small boulder with a lot of graffiti on it. The combination adds a nice touch to the scene.

even with all this sun and heat the terrarium idea seems to be a great way to protect these types of cuttings .
some of my other cuttings have died off rather soon but these are my oldest survivors .
Video of Juniper Hairstreak. Hairstreaks have tails that look like antenna. They even move when the wings slide back and forth. I sometimes wonder if they move all by themselves. Antenna like tails are also found on the swallowtail butterflies. Together with eyespots these decorations serve to confuse predators about which end is the head. Consequently you will see some butterflies that are missing part of the tail end of their wings. They seem to get along ok and are lucky to have escaped a predator.
grew up with these bushes in my yard and all around in Pennsylvania. this is at the beach, in New Jersey, though.
"Under severe site conditions, Utah juniper trees persist in very stunted forms. A 6-inch tree with a 24-inch (60 cm) taproot may be over 50 years old"
