Blue Pacific Juniper Shrub
Blue Pacific Juniper, also known as Juniperus Conferta, is a popular ground cover for its fast growth and low maintenance requirements. It is extremely cold hardy, making it an ideal choice for harsh climates. The plant features an eye-catching ocean blue-green foliage that remains lush and dense throughout the year. With a low-trailing growth habit, Blue Pacific Juniper spreads 2-3 feet wide and only grows 6 inches tall. It works well as a ground cover, seashore planting, planter boxes, and as a draping plant over walls. For a striking foliage contrast, it can be paired with Yellow Ribbon Arborvitae.
