Juniperus scopulorum 'Skyrocket' is commonly referred to as Skyrocket Juniper, Blue Pencil Juniper or Rocky Mountain Skyrocket Juniper. It is an extremely narrow, stately, columnar, female evergreen conifer that features silver blue foliage and blue berries that are popular with winter birds. Its blue color intensifies with cooler temperatures.
Skyrocket Juniper is fast growing and thrives in full sun in average, well-drained soils. It will not tolerate standing water. It can be drought tolerant once established. It is ideal as a screen or windbreak, and makes a perfect specimen plant.

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.
