Blue Rug Juniper

Perfect as a groundcover due to its spreading growth habit, this plant reaches 0.5 feet in height and up to 6 feet wide at maturity. This plant is a great addition to borders, where it will complement your other plants beautifully. It's prized for its attractive foliage. The leaves are silvery-blue, turning a lovely shade of purple in fall. It produces small, bluish-purple berries that look decorative but are not edible and shouldn't be consumed.
