A most beautiful groundcover juniper, featuring bright yellow new growth over bluish-green fine-textured foliage; compact spreading and sprawling, with arching branch tips, superb for massing or as a color accent groundcover.
Holger Juniper is a dense multi-stemmed evergreen shrub with a ground-hugging habit of growth. It lends an extremely fine and delicate texture to the landscape composition which should be used to full effect.
This is a relatively low maintenance shrub, and is best pruned in late winter once the threat of extreme cold has passed. It has no significant negative characteristics.
Holger Juniper is a dwarf conifer which is primarily valued in the garden for its broadly spreading habit of growth. It has attractive blue evergreen foliage which emerges yellow in spring. The scale-like sprays of foliage are highly ornamental and remain blue throughout the winter.
Holger Juniper will grow to be about 3 feet tall at maturity, with a spread of 4 feet. It tends to fill out right to the ground and therefore doesn't necessarily require facer plants in front. It grows at a slow rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 30 years.
