Juniperus horizontalis Plumosa

Juniperus horizontalis Plumosa Details

Juniperus horizontalis Plumosa is a lovely, ground hugging conifer. It features slender, trailing branches that host green-yellow, needle like foliage. It will grow quickly to about 50 cm tall and 2 m wide as a dense mat. Best performance with this conifer is achieved when planted on a well-drained site in full sun or partial shade. It is tolerant of dry conditions but not of prolonged wet soils. It is also tolerant of coastal environments and cold conditions. Juniperus horizontalis Plumosa is commonly used as an attractive groundcover, planted beside steps or a path and allowed to spill over, used as a border plant, or planted on a bank.
