Juniperus Chinesis ‘Blue Alps’ is perfect as a groundcover plant, with compact dense foliage. The colours change throughout the season with bright green foliage in the spring, turning to a green/blue colour in the Autumn. This plant is a relatively fast grower, but does not get too large, and the new shoots weep slightly at the tip. These plants provide shelter and habitat to the wildlife.
