This low-growing evergreen is prized for its compact, spreading habit and soft, feathery green foliage. It grows about 12 inches tall and spreads up to 6 feet wide over time. The finely textured foliage holds its green color year-round, with newer growth showing a hint of silver.

Mini Arcadia Junipers are hardy and low-maintenance, thriving in full sun and most soil types, except for wet or saturated soils. They are resistant to juniper blight, though bagworms, scale, and spider mites may occasionally appear.

This shrub is ideal as a dense groundcover, in rock gardens, Asian-style gardens, or cascading over walls. It can be trimmed anytime the weather is dry.
