Design with this plant

Overview

The Arcadia Juniper, Juniperus sabina 'Arcadia', is a robust, low-growing conifer, offering a dense, carpet-like spread of rich green foliage. Mature specimens reach up to 18 inches tall and spread outward up to 8 feet. Its hardiness (zones 3-7) and low maintenance make it an excellent groundcover. Tolerant of a range of soils, it performs best in full sun. Resists deer and is ideal for erosion control.
