Juniperus Sq. "Blue Star"

Juniperus squamata 'Blue Star' is a highly ornamental dwarf conifer known for its intense silvery-blue foliage and neatly rounded, compact growth habit. It typically grows to 30–60 cm in height and 60–90 cm in width, making it ideal for small spaces, edging, or decorative container planting.

Its foliage consists of short, sharply pointed needle-like leaves that densely cover the branches, forming a tight, mound-like shape. The brilliant blue coloration remains vivid throughout the year, intensifying in colder months and providing excellent contrast against darker plants or garden structures.

‘Blue Star’ thrives in full sun and well-drained soils, and it is drought-tolerant, deer-resistant, and virtually maintenance-free. It does not require pruning and naturally maintains its appealing form over time.

This variety is especially popular in rock gardens, Japanese-style gardens, and urban landscapes, where its vivid color and tidy form offer long-lasting, low-maintenance beauty.
