Dwarf Japanese Garden Juniper (Juniperus procumbens ‘Nana’) is a low-growing evergreen conifer prized for its dense, spreading growth habit and attractive bluish-green foliage. Its short, pointed, needle-like leaves form a thick, textured covering along the branches, creating a distinctive evergreen appearance. During colder weather, the foliage may develop subtle purple or bronze-purple tones, adding seasonal interest to the landscape.

This compact juniper develops a broad, horizontal growth habit with closely arranged branches that spread outward and may gently cascade over edges. It is particularly suitable for rock gardens, slopes, retaining walls, landscape borders, and evergreen groundcover plantings. Its dense foliage and naturally spreading form also make it useful in Japanese-inspired gardens and decorative outdoor containers.

Dwarf Japanese Garden Juniper generally performs best in full sun and well-drained soil. It tolerates a range of soil types when drainage is adequate and offers good drought tolerance once established. Its evergreen foliage provides year-round texture and color, while its naturally low, spreading form creates an attractive landscape accent.

Each order includes 1 live Dwarf Japanese Garden Juniper supplied in a 3-gallon nursery container (G3).

Approx. 15 inches tall at time of shipping.
