Common Name: Sea Green Juniper
Juniperus chinensis ‘Sea Green’ — commonly called Sea Green juniper — is an evergreen shrub valued for its rich deep green foliage and graceful arching branches that form a dense fountain-like mound. The branch tips curve gently upward, giving the plant a soft flowing appearance while maintaining strong year-round evergreen structure. Type: Evergreen shrub Mature Size: Width: 4–6 ft Height: 4–6 ft USDA Zones: 4a–9b Form: Broad, arching, fountain-like Light: Full sun Soil: Well-drained soil; adaptable to sandy, rocky, and average garden soils Water: Low to medium; drought tolerant once established Wildlife: Provides shelter for birds; deer resistant Features & Landscape Uses: Excellent for foundation plantings, borders, slopes, and evergreen accents. Its arching habit softens corners and blends well with mixed shrub plantings. Care: Plant in full sun for best density and color. Avoid poorly drained soils. Minimal pruning is needed; trim lightly in early spring only if shaping is desired.
