Daub's Frosted Juniper

Daub’s Frosted Juniper is a colorful spreading evergreen bush, growing just a foot or two tall, but reaching 3 to 6 feet across. It has brilliant yellow young tips, and lime-green older foliage, which creates a colorful contrasting effect. This bright plant is ideal for the foreground of mixed shrub beds, or among the plants around your home. Its low height is perfect below deep windows, or beside steps and paths. It is also ideal for sloping parts of the garden, or along a driveway. Very hardy and drought resistant, this easy plant will bring lots of color all year, but it needs no significant care.

• Superb contrasting gold and lime-green foliage
• Gold color never burns in summer sunlight
• Spreading form is ideal for foreground planting
• Easily grown and drought resistant
• Hardy everywhere

Daub’s Frosted Juniper is not scorched by the summer sun, as many other golden evergreens can be, and it is very hardy, thriving in all the zones from 4 to 9. It is also hardy in zone 3, but some temporary winter damage is possible. It grows best in full sun, and in any well-drained soil, from sandy and rocky soils to clay soils. Do not plant in areas that are shady or often wet. This plant is normally not damaged by rabbits or deer, and it has no significant pests or diseases. The spread of older plants can be controlled by removing stem tips, so as not to destroy the attractive arching form of this plant.
