Juniperus chinensis 'Blue Point'

juniper blue point

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

Native to China, Myanmar, Japan, Korea, and the Russian Far East, Juniper Blue Point is a timeless favorite for adding structure to any landscape. Its dense branching and glowing blue-green foliage create a striking pyramidal form that holds its shape beautifully year-round with very little upkeep. Thick and sturdy, it withstands windy conditions better than most upright junipers, making it as durable as it is elegant.
