Description

Excellent, vigorous, evergreen carpeting conifer with dense, aromatic, needle-like foliage. Junipers tolerate a wide range of well drained soils including dry, chalky and sandy soils, but prefer full sun or light shade. They are drought tolerant when established. Due to the prickly nature of the foliage they are rabbit and deer resistant. They provide year round interest. Golden Carpet is an excellent, new, very prostrate cultivar with dense, plume-like branches with bright yellow, aromatic, new foliage which changes to old gold in summer with purple tints in winter. Ovoid, dark blue cones. Height 30cm (1ft). Plant 60cm (2ft) apart.
