BLUE STAR JUNIPER

Juniperus squamata 'Blue Star' is commonly referred to as Blue Star Juniper or Flaky Juniper. It is a slow-growing, dwarf evergreen shrub with sparkling blue foliage with a low, mounding habit. Foliage turns a lovely purplish-blue during the winter months. It creates a wonderful groundcover when contrasted with other greenery in the landscape.

Blue Star Juniper thrives in full sun in average, sandy, well-drained soils. It will not tolerate standing water. It can be drought tolerant once established. It is ideal for borders and rock gardens, and would make a fantastic specimen or foundation plant.

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.
