A popular and beautiful evergreen landscape shrub for general garden and massing use, features an arching, sprawling branching habit with downturned tips, very attractive, deep green needle-like foliage; does best with full sun
Ornamental Attributes:

It produces powder blue berries from late spring right through to late winter. The rough gray bark is not particularly outstanding.
Landscape Attributes:
Sea Green Juniper is a multi-stemmed evergreen shrub with a shapely form and gracefully arching branches. It lends an extremely fine and delicate texture to the landscape composition which can make it a great accent feature on this basis alone.
This is a relatively low maintenance shrub, and is best pruned in late winter once the threat of extreme cold has passed. Deer don't particularly care for this plant and will usually leave it alone in favor of tastier treats. It has no significant negative characteristics.
Sea Green Juniper is recommended for the following landscape applications;
