Junipers

Big tall evergreen trees are monoecious But others are only dioecious Two sexes are mono While only one dio Both prickly to handle coniferous

Hi Andrea Thank you for selecting my juniper limerick for a 2nd place in your contest I used the ious rhymes after researching info on the Juniper and discovered the plant can be either Monoecious : Able to have either male and or female sexual systems on the same plant and Dioecious distinct unisexual either produces male or female reproductive cells in seed plants hence my references can learn something new all the time Cheers Christine

We used to have Juniper shrubbery on our hill but decided on something else.

Hi Kim Thanks for a look in, hopefully your shrubbery is not as prickly Cheers Chris
