IRISH UPRIGHT JUNIPER

Juniperus communis 'Hibernica' is commonly known as Irish Upright Juniper. This award-winner was introduced in 1838 and has stood the test of time. It is a slow-growing, needled, evergreen shrub with a narrow columnar habit when young, becoming more broad and pillar-shaped with age. It features soft looking blue-green slightly feather foliage.

Irish Upright Juniper is easy to grow and care for. It thrives in full sun in nutrient-rich, evenly moist, well-drained soils. It can be drought tolerant once established. Perfect as a specimen plant or for windbreaks, hedges and foundation plantings.

Planting Tips ⓘ

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in well-draining soil, selecting a location that receives full sun to ensure the best foliage color and density. These evergreen shrubs are incredibly durable and heat-tolerant, though they require consistent water during the first season until the root system is well established; thereafter, they are notably drought-tolerant.

Prune as needed in late winter or early spring to manage size or remove dead wood, but avoid aggressive shearing that exposes the inner woody stems. Apply a layer of organic mulch around the root zone to conserve moisture and suppress weeds, taking care to keep the material a few inches away from the crown to prevent stem rot.
