Juniperus conferta 'Blue Pacific' is a creeping juniper native to the Japanese coast, forming a dense, supple ground cover with prickly bluish-green foliage with silvery highlights. It is distinguished by its coarser texture and its irregular cushion-like, spreading habit, with slightly arched stems that sometimes root on the surface. Its evergreen foliage turns bronze in winter, creating an attractive seasonal contrast. It is particularly effective for stabilizing sandy slopes, controlling erosion, or covering exposed rockeries. 'Blue Pacific' is one of the hardiest conferta junipers, resisting salt spray, wind, and drought once established. This low, robust conifer is ideal for exposed gardens, riparian strips, and coastal or northern climate landscaping.
