Many cultivars have been introduced in horticulture, so perhaps J.chinensis is the most popular ornamental tree or shrub in gardens and parks worldwide. The volatile oil is dominated by sabinene (13-43%) and ethyl acetate (13-20%), with cultivar-depending amounts of alpha-pinene (1-22%), limonene (1-14%), myrcene, terpineole, bornyl acetate and cedrol.
