Evergreen Juniperus (Juniper)
Color Name: Blue Arrow
Blue Arrow is one of those great "plant it and forget it" plants even though its outstanding blue-green foliage and memorable tall, very narrow form will make it hard to forget! The natural oils it produces protects it from drought making this tough plant a sure bet as a hedge or privacy screen in even the roughest, driest soil or in hot, sunny areas. 'Blue Arrow' grows up to 15 feet tall and an amazing 2 feet wide making it perfect for a narrow screen where space is limited. Its precise, upright form makes it an easy fit for formal garden use. Even better, 'Blue Arrow's' bright blue to dark green foliage is deer resistant and can tolerate road salt conditions.
Growing Tips: Tolerates hot, dry, sunny locations and urban sites.
Soil: Well-drained soil is imperative; can tolerate dry conditions and poor soils.
Pruning: Pruning is not typically required as a matter of course; prune to shape or to control spread as needed.
Uses: Mass plantings, specimen plant.
