Water Saving Tip:

Replace turf with groundcovers, trees, and shrubs. If you have areas where no one uses the grass, patches that do not grow well, or a turf area too small to water without runoff, consider replacing the turf with water-efficient landscaping.

  • Description

  • Notes

Buffalo Juniper is a wide-spreading, low-growing, very hardy juniper. It has bright green, feathery foliage, and a softer look that other junipers. Like most junipers, it grows best in full sun and well drained soil. This shrub is great for erosion control, and tolerates the heat of west facing slopes, parking lots, and parkstrips.
