Also known as: Blue Point Chinese Juniper, Pyramidal Blue Juniper

Juniper Blue Point is a classic evergreen shrub known for its dense branching, blue green foliage, and naturally pyramidal shape. Native to parts of Asia, this upright juniper adds year round structure and color to the landscape while requiring very little maintenance once established. Its sturdy growth handles wind well and keeps a clean, formal look without constant pruning. Juniper Blue Point grows best in full sun and well drained soil, making it a beautiful choice for entryways, foundation plantings, privacy accents, formal gardens, and landscape focal points.
