Juniperus are great plants for striking foliage and they feature branches that are densely packed with either needle-like leaves or scale-like leaves. With junipers being evergreen, they are a great choice for adding interest to your garden all year round. Depending on the variety, they are well-suited to a range of situations and most are suitable for costal sites as well as urban sites.
The smaller juniper varieties work well in rock gardens or gravel gardens and will give a colourful boost to your garden during winter.
