  • Description

  • Notes

This attractive, evergreen groundcover grows to about 12 inches tall and up to 6 feet wide. It is very low, spreading, and mound-like -- resembling a natural bonsai. One of the best Junipers for small garden spaces. Dense evergreen foliage is blue green. This juniper is great for erosion control, difficult hillsides, raised planters, cascading over walls. It is frequently available in a staked form, to be maintained as sort of a miniature tree.
