Moonglow Juniper is a small evergreen tree known for its dense, pyramidal habit with tight upright branching growth. Its fine blue-green foliage with a hint of silver gains its striking silver-blue tones in winter. Best growth occurs with full sun and well drained soils. Its drought-tolerant and hardiness once established makes it a hardy choice for many landscapes.
