Juniper Blue Point

Juniper Blue Point

Juniper ‘Blue Point’ is a popular evergreen shrub prized for its rich blue-green foliage and naturally symmetrical, pyramidal form. Its dense branching and vibrant color provide strong year-round structure, making it an excellent choice for privacy screens, foundation plantings, windbreaks, or as a standalone landscape accent. Blue Point Juniper adds clean lines and visual interest to both formal and informal landscape designs.

Typically reaching 10–15 feet tall and 6–8 feet wide, it thrives in full sun and adapts easily to a wide range of soil and climate conditions. It is highly tolerant of heat, cold, wind, and drought once established, making it a reliable, low-maintenance option for long-term landscaping. Its uniform growth habit requires minimal pruning, allowing it to maintain its attractive shape naturally. Blue Point Juniper is commonly used in residential and commercial landscapes for dependable evergreen coverage and architectural appeal.
