Details: Fully rooted 2 Inch Blue Pacific Juniper plants or 'Shore Juniper'. Blue Pacific Juniper, commonly called Shore Juniper, is a decumbent evergreen shrub that is native to certain sandy coastal areas of Japan and Sakhalin Island. It is a dense, low-spreading plant that grows 10-18" tall and spreads by creeping, branched stems over time to 6-8' wide. 'Blue Pacific' is a trailing, lower growing cultivar that typically grows to at most 12" tall. In comparison to J. conferta, 'Blue Pacific' is noted for having (1) better blue foliage color, (2) better ground cover form, (3) denser foliage along the branches and (4) better resistance to winter injury. Aromatic, awl-shaped, spiny-pointed, blue-green needles (to 5/8" long) appear in groups of three. Fleshy, blackish, berry-like seed cones acquire a silvery bloom at maturity.
