A highly attractive and sophisticated groundcover for discerning landscapers, features soft bluish-gray fine-textured foliage; a highly compact low spreader, with arching branch tips, excellent for massing or as a color accent groundcover.

Blue Carpet Juniper is a dense spreading evergreen shrub with a ground-hugging habit of growth. It lends an extremely fine and delicate texture to the landscape composition which should be used to full effect.

This is a relatively low maintenance shrub, and is best pruned in late winter once the threat of extreme cold has passed. It has no significant negative characteristics.

Blue Carpet Juniper is a dwarf conifer which is primarily valued in the garden for its broadly spreading habit of growth. It has attractive powder blue evergreen  foliage. The scale-like sprays of foliage are highly ornamental and remain powder blue throughout the winter.

Blue Carpet Juniper will grow to be about 12 inches tall at maturity, with a spread of 5 feet. It tends to fill out right to the ground and therefore doesn't necessarily require facer plants in front. It grows at a slow rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for 40 years or more.
