Juniperus horizontalis 'Prince of Wales'
Juniperus horizontalis 'Prince of Wales' is a super-spreading, low, and uniform groundcover juniper, forming a dense carpet of finely textured foliage. Its growth habit is very flattened, almost hugging the ground, making it an excellent choice for large embankments, rockeries, green roofs, or minimalist landscaping requiring a discreet yet effective groundcover. Its evergreen foliage, medium green with a blue tint in summer, takes on bronzy-purple tones in winter, adding seasonal interest. Resistant to wind, drought, intense cold, and poor soils, this Canadian cultivar is renowned for its robustness, stability, and ability to quickly cover large areas with no maintenance. 'Prince of Wales' is a reliable choice for northern gardens to subtly and effectively cover the ground.
