Description
Rocky Mountain Juniper, also known as Juniperus Scopulorum ‘Blue Arrow’, makes an attractive, slow-growing and very narrow column of evergreen blue-green foliage that can achieve a height of 4 metres with a width of only 50cm.
With its narrow, columnar shape, Blue Arrow Juniper adds vertical interest to your landscape. Its compact size makes it a great choice for smaller gardens or tight spaces. Plus, its low maintenance requirements make it a hassle-free choice for busy gardeners.
You can also use Rocky Mountain Juniper as a tall hedge to give your space some privacy. Alternatively, they also look great planted in rows. Gardeners often feel that Blue Arrow gives their space a formal or regal look.
The needles are pressed close against the branches, giving vertically held looking sprays that, on close inspection, can appear rather coarse looking.
Juniperus Scopulorum is the narrowest, most ‘pencil like’ of all columnar conifers, making it very useful for landscapers.
Resilient and hardy, Rocky Mountain Juniper will tolerate most soil types, but it’s best planted it in a sheltered, shady site to encourage its leanness.
Add Rocky Mountain Juniper to your space today and watch the vertical growth transform your garden.
