Compact Creeping Juniper is a flat-spreading coniferous shrub that forms a dense mat and stays full in the center. Its fine sticky awl shaped grey-green foliage earns light purple tones in winter. The fleshy blue to green-black female cones look like berries. Best planted in full sun and well-drained soils. Drought Tolerant once established.
