The Great Juniper Hunt: have you seen this plant?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Dear gardeners and citizen scientists, you are being recruited to track down wild juniper berries because, well, that's what gives gin its distinctive flavour and aroma.

Look for a conifer with needle-like leaves with sharp tips up to 25mm long. The needles will point up and out rather than down the stem, and are green with a white band down the centre. The all-important berries are 5-6mm wide and blue-black when ripe. Robyn Abernethy from Dunedin Botanic Garden says if you are unsure if a conifer is a juniper, stick your hand into it. Junipers are prickly on the inside. When you've found it, post it to the link below. Happy hunting!
