Blue Chip Juniper (Juniperus horizontalis ‘Blue Chip’) is a popular low-growing evergreen shrub known for its striking silvery-blue foliage and spreading groundcover habit. This ha rdy juniper forms a dense mat that provides year-round colour and texture, making it an excellent choice for borders, slopes, rock gardens, and mass plantings. The soft, feathery foliage maintains its blue tone throughout the growing season and often deepens slightly in winter, adding seasonal interest. Its spreading nature helps suppress weeds and stabilize soil, making it especially useful for erosion control and difficult planting areas. In Alberta, Blue Chip Juniper thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. It is extremely drought-tolerant once established and adapts well to poor soils, wind, and urban conditions. Its low-maintenance nature makes it a reliable choice for both residential and commercial landscapes. Show more
