Juniperus scopulorum 'Skyrocket' (Rocky Mountain juniper)
Narrow columnar habit, grey green foliage. (Evergreen)
Common Name: Rocky Mountain juniper
Latin Name: Juniperus scopulorum 'Skyrocket'
Soil: Moist but well-drained (will tolerate most soil types)
Position: Full sun or shade
Hardiness: Fully hardy
Height in 10 years: 1.5-2m
Special features: Narrow columnar habit, grey green foliage. (Evergreen)
Juniperus scopulorum 'Skyrocket' makes a very narrow column of blue-green foliage that can achieve a height of 4m yet just 50cm across. Best planted it in a sheltered, shady site to encourage its leanness. The needles are pressed close against the branches, giving vertically held, whippy looking sprays that, on close inspection, can appear rather coarse looking. It is the narrowest, most 'pencil like' of all columnar conifers, making it very useful for landscape people.
This Juniperus conifer is supplied in a 3 litre container for year round planting. (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.
