Juniperus horizontalis 'Andorra Variegata' - creeping juniper

Creeping juniper is a useful and maintenance-free shrub, popular with landscapers. They are so easy to grow and need very little care. This variety has creamy-yellow varigated leaves. The branches grow upright and slightly droop at the edge of the shrub. The green branches turn violet-blue in winter. It is compact, medium to slow growing.


Fully hardy.
