More about this plant
A dense, erect blue green juniper grown for fragrant needled evergreen foliage and peeling bark. It takes full sun and clay, sand or shallow rocky ground that drains well but can stay moist or run occasionally dry, and it is drought tolerant, seldom damaged by deer, and unusually tolerant of wet soil for a juniper. Blue fleshy berry like cones follow on female plants and draw songbirds. Use it as a border evergreen or a specimen where its aromatic foliage is close enough to notice.
