Juniperus Communis ‘Repanda’

Creeping Juniper ‘Repanda’

Low-growing evergreen conifer with a broad, spreading habit and gently arching branches. It forms a dense, mat-like shrub that hugs the ground, creating a soft, uniform carpet effect ideal for large areas and erosion control.

The foliage consists of short, needle-like leaves arranged in whorls, giving a fine yet slightly prickly texture. Its color is a rich, deep green that remains consistent throughout the year, sometimes taking on a slightly bronzed tint in winter under colder conditions.

Juniperus communis ‘Repanda’ prefers full sun and well-drained soil, performing well in poor, sandy, or rocky conditions. It tolerates moderately dry to dry soils and adapts well to exposed sites. Once established, it shows high drought tolerance, good resistance to pollution, and moderate tolerance to salt. It is ideal for slopes, rock gardens, and as a durable, low-maintenance groundcover.
