Description
Juniper Grey Owl is a stunning, low-spreading evergreen with finely textured silver-gray foliage that adds a refreshing contrast to the landscape. Its broad, mounding habit makes it an excellent choice for foundation plantings, mass plantings, or erosion control on slopes. In winter, its soft, feathery foliage takes on a subtle purplish tint, adding seasonal interest. This highly adaptable juniper is both polished and rugged, offering a satisfying combination of beauty and resilience. Small, blue, berry-like cones provide additional texture and attract birds, enhancing its appeal as a dynamic landscape feature.

General Care

• Sunlight: Prefers full sun
• Watering: Once established, water occasionally, allowing soil to dry between waterings
• Mulching: Apply a 2-inch layer of mulch to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature
• Pruning: Minimal pruning is needed; shape lightly in late winter or early spring if necessary

With its graceful silver-blue foliage, year-round texture, and broad, spreading form, Juniper Grey Owl is a refined yet rugged addition to any landscape, offering lasting color and structure with little maintenance.
