Juniperus conferta is a distinctive juniper with prickly, apple green foliage held on light, chestnut coloured stems that makes a rather refined ground cover. It has the merest touch of waywardness in its appearance. It is suitable for growing on banks and down walls and even in seaside locations as its native habitat is the coast of northern Japan.
This Juniperus conifer is supplied container grown suitable for planting all year round. (Some examples of our 3 litre Conifers can be seen to the left.)
All of our conifers are grown in the UK to the highest standard. Every order comes complete with planting instructions and a guide to looking after your purchase.
Please allow up to 5-7 working days delivery time on any orders containing conifers.
