Juniperus Horizontalis Wiltonii Blue Rug Juniper

​Juniperus horizontalis 'Wiltonii', commonly known as Blue Rug Juniper, is a low-growing, evergreen shrub prized for its dense, prostrate form and striking silver-blue foliage that acquires purple tones in winter. Typically reaching a height of 4 to 6 inches and spreading 6 to 8 feet wide, it serves as an excellent groundcover, effectively controlling erosion on slopes and adding year-round visual interest to landscapes.

Its adaptability to various soil types and resistance to urban pollutants further enhance its versatility in diverse garden settings.
