Ground-Hugging Evergreen

  (1 customer reviews)

Beautiful landscape accent, even in winter! Tolerates subzero cold and retains its handsome looks. The Blue Rug Juniper is dense with silvery-blue foliage, just 6-8 inches tall, spreads to 5 feet. Covers 25 sq. feet. Prefers full sun to partial shade.

Ground covers are as useful and often more decorative than lawns. Hot, dry spots above a hard to mow retaining wall or heavily shaded sites under trees are made to order situation where ground covers can work their magic..

Not available in CA.

great plant for year-round color
Reviewed By: Robin (Montpelier, VT)
This plant is great for replacing lawns on steep banks, etc. It is low to the ground and very thick and colorful. I've seen lots of junipers that are used as ground cover and this one is by far the prettiest.
