Blue Point Juniper (Juniperus chinensis ‘Blue Point’) is a tall, upright, pyramidal evergreen with striking blue-green foliage that adds year-round interest to any landscape. Its vertical form makes it ideal for privacy screens, windbreaks, group plantings, or as a dramatic vertical accent near entrances. The dense foliage and elegant shape provide both beauty and functionality in garden design.

Blue Point Juniper is a versatile and low-maintenance choice for gardeners looking to add height, structure, and color to their landscapes. Its drought tolerance and adaptability make it suitable for a variety of garden settings.

Blue Point Juniper Care

Plant in well-drained soil and water regularly until established. While drought tolerant, Blue Point Juniper will not thrive in standing water. Pruning is generally unnecessary, but plants can be lightly sheared in late winter to maintain shape if desired.

Blue Point Juniper Growth & Spacing

Blue Point Juniper typically grows 15–20 feet tall with a 4–6 foot spread. For privacy screens or windbreaks, space plants 6–8 feet apart on center. For mass plantings or groupings, space 10–12 feet apart on center to allow for mature growth.
