It performs well in urban settings and open landscapes alike, making it a reliable option for residential and commercial plantings. With proper spacing and minimal care, Blue Point Juniper can grow into a long-lived, stately evergreen that enhances the landscape for decades. Its durability and low maintenance needs make it a favorite for gardeners seeking long-term performance with minimal effort.

Care Instructions

Planting

Choose a full sun location with good air circulation. Plant in spring or fall, spacing adequately for mature height and width.

Watering

Water regularly during the first year to establish roots. Once mature, water only during extended dry periods.

Pruning

Prune lightly in late winter or early spring to maintain shape. Avoid cutting into old wood, as junipers do not regenerate from bare branches.

Pest Control

Watch for spider mites, bagworms, and scale insects. Treat early with horticultural oil or insecticidal soap if necessary.

Soil Tips

Prefers well-drained soil but tolerates a wide range of soil types. Avoid poorly drained or constantly wet areas to prevent root issues.
