Silvery blue-green foliage and a tidy, upright form that holds its color and structure through every season. The Moonglow Juniper (Juniperus scopulorum 'Moonglow') is a Rocky Mount ain juniper prized for its luminous, frosty blue-green foliage and dense, broadly pyramidal habit. It grows at a moderate pace to a mature height of roughly 15 to 20 feet with a compact 4 to 6 foot spread, giving you a tall, narrow column of year-round color that fits into spaces where a wider conifer would crowd. Its soft, scale-like foliage stays richly silvered all winter, making it a standout for vertical screening, accents, and tough, sunny sites where other evergreens struggle. Why growers choose the Moonglow Juniper Standout blue color. The frosty silver-blue foliage is brighter than most junipers and holds its tone through summer heat and winter cold alike. Narrow, upright footprint. At only 4 to 6 feet wide but up to 20 feet tall, it screens and accents without sprawling into walkways, driveways, or neighboring beds. Genuinely tough. Once established it shrugs off drought, heat, poor rocky soil, and wind, and it is hardy all the way to USDA zone 3. Deer tend to pass it by. Junipers carry aromatic, resinous foliage that browsing deer usually avoid, unlike more palatable evergreens. Low maintenance. It keeps its dense, conical shape naturally and rarely needs more than light tidying. Plant a single specimen as a blue vertical accent by an entry or corner, group three for a sculptural cluster, or set several in a row for a colorful, space-saving privacy screen or windbreak on a hot, open site.
