LATIN NAME: JUNIPERUS CHINENSIS VAR. SARGENTII ‘VIRIDIS’
The Basics
This fast-growing evergreen has rich emerald-green foliage. Its heavily branched, low-spreading growth habit with dense coverage makes it one of the best low-growing junipers for grouping on banks and mass planting. It grows 2-3 feet in height(5-6 feet wide). Best performs as groundcover and erosion control.
The Needs
Amount of Sunlight: Thrives in full sun; Tolerates shade
Amount of Water: Water regularly; more frequent watering in extreme heat; Drought tolerant
Soil Conditions: Adaptable to most soils; Prefers dry, well-drained soil; Not tolerant of overly wet soil
Cold Hardiness Zone: 4-9
The Care
This easy-to-grow evergreen needs a regular water schedule to ensure the growth of a mature root system. After the mature root system is established, watering is needed occasionally, except during a drought, watering is needed regularly. Pruning to desired shape is recommended only at early stages of growth to encourage branching. Pruning older branches may not encourage new growth.
