The Blue Pacific Juniper (Juniperus conferta ‘Blue Pacific’) is a hardy evergreen groundcover prized for its dense, spreading growth and rich blue-green foliage. Known for its ability to withstand tough conditions, this low-maintenance juniper is ideal for slopes, rock gardens, borders, and erosion control.
With its compact, trailing habit, the Blue Pacific Juniper forms a thick carpet of foliage that adds year-round color and texture to landscapes. It is highly tolerant of salt, drought, and poor soils, making it especially well-suited for coastal gardens. In addition to its beauty, this juniper also provides excellent weed suppression and ground stability.
