Chinese Juniper 'San Jose'

Juniperus chinensis ‘San Jose’ is a vigorous, ornamental, shrubby juniper, valued for its strong spreading habit and dense, highly structural blue-green foliage. This variety is distinguished by its broad, tiered growth, forming a robust shrub that is wider than it is tall, ideal for large beds, low screens, slopes, and specimen plantings. Its evergreen foliage, composed of fine, slightly prickly needles, maintains a strong blue-green color all year round, providing a powerful visual presence even in winter. Highly drought-tolerant once established and perfectly suited to poor, well-drained soils, ‘San Jose’ is renowned for its longevity and exceptional cold hardiness. Undemanding and very reliable, it is an excellent choice for sustainably structuring northern landscapes requiring volume, stability, and low maintenance.
