Description

Blue Point Juniper (Juniperus chinensis ‘Blue Point’) is a hardy, evergreen conifer known for its dense, conical shape and attractive silvery-blue foliage. This slow-growing juniper maintains a naturally symmetrical, upright form, making it an excellent choice for formal landscaping, topiary, or as a focal point. The fine, needle-like foliage retains its color year-round, creating visual interest and adding a pop of blue-green to the landscape.

Typically reaching heights of 8 to 12 feet and a spread of 3 to 4 feet, Blue Point Juniper is ideal for narrow spaces, small privacy screens, or mixed borders. It thrives in USDA zones 4-9 and performs best in full sun. This juniper is highly adaptable to various soil types, including sandy and clay soils, as long as they are well-draining. Once established, Blue Point Juniper is extremely drought-tolerant and resilient in hot, dry climates, making it a low-maintenance choice for xeriscape gardens and low-water landscapes.

Blue Point Juniper requires minimal pruning due to its naturally tidy shape but can be trimmed for more formal topiary styles or to control height. This tree is resistant to most pests and diseases and is generally unbothered by deer, adding to its appeal in various landscapes. With its elegant shape, vibrant color, and low maintenance needs, Blue Point Juniper is a versatile and attractive option for adding structure and year-round greenery to gardens, foundations, and entryways.
