Description

New growth is a bright, golden yellow color; the juniper itself is fast-growing to a size of 5' tall by 10' wide. It prefers full sun in coastal areas but will benefit from afternoon shade in warm inland valleys. It is not fussy about soil as long as it has good drainage. Once established, it needs little watering.

Water Saving Tip:

Replace turf with groundcovers, trees, and shrubs. If you have areas where no one uses the grass, patches that do not grow well, or a turf area too small to water without runoff, consider replacing the turf with water-efficient landscaping.
