The best known juniper juniper, found in parks, small walls or slopes. Creeping variety. Tolerates contamination very well.
Conifer that can reach 1m in height although it has a compact and creeping shape. Evergreen needle-shaped leaves, sharp greenish blue.
Prefers limestone soils, well drained and dry.
Dig a hole at least two or three times as wide and deep as the root ball. Take out the plant from the container and loosen roots to allow them to spread out in all direction. Cut possible broken roots. Mix the soil extracted with a substrate and fill part of the hole with the mixture obtained. Place the plant in the hole and cover with the remaining mixture. Compact the soil around the plant and water thoroughly.
