Brief Facts: Juniperus communis is an evergreen tree native to cool, temperate parts of North America, Europe, and Asia.

Folklore: The History and folklore concerning juniper trees are long reaching. The first recorded mention of use is in an ancient Eqyptian papyrus from 1500 BCE. Western European folklore tells that if a juniper tree is planted by the door of your home, a witch cannot enter. Juniper incense has also been used by the Scottish to ward off the evil eye.
