Juniperus conferta is a hardy dense mat-forming groundcover with dark evergreen conifer-like foliage. The aromatic, fine needled foliage grows thickly to cover soil and rocks and it will drape itself elegantly over low walls. It produces small, pale green berries and the easy care conifer is suited to erosion control on embankments, container planting and bonsai. Ideal for seaside gardens as the name suggests – it grows on sand dunes in its native Japan.

Soil: Moist, free-draining soil/sand.
Conditions: Full sun. Wind and salt tolerant. Frost hardy.
Size: Height 0.30m x width 2m
