Juniperus scopulorum 'Blue Arrow' – Sleek Blue Foliage & Architectural Form
Juniperus scopulorum 'Blue Arrow' is a striking, narrow-growing evergreen conifer, prized for its dense, steely-blue foliage and upright columnar form. Supplied in a 12 Litre pot, it's an ideal choice for adding year-round vertical structure, colour contrast, and architectural impact to gardens large or small. Its tidy silhouette makes it especially useful in formal planting schemes, pots, or as a space-saving alternative to larger conifers.
This low-maintenance juniper offers excellent drought tolerance once established and requires little to no pruning, maintaining its slim, elegant shape with minimal effort. Perfect as a specimen plant, in pairs flanking paths or doorways, or dotted through gravel and Mediterranean-style gardens for strong visual rhythm.
