Prostrate Juniper
A reliable and hardy prostrate conifer, forming a dense, low-growing mat of blue-green or green, scale-like foliage. It spreads effectively, making it an excellent groundcover for banks, slopes, or trailing over walls. Ultimate height is typically only 15-30cm, with a spread of 1.5-2.5 metres. Extremely drought-tolerant and adaptable to various soil types once established, preferring full sun. Provides effective weed suppression and year-round colour and texture, especially useful in challenging hot, dry sites.
