Juniperus conferta 'All Gold' / All Gold shore juniper
Juniperus rigida subsp. conferta 'All Gold' is a slow-growing, spreading, prostrate selection of shore juniper. Foliage is a fantastic golden yellow during the growing season, turning orange-yellow in winter. Approximate dimensions, as listed by Stanley and Sons nursery, is 6 inches (15 cm) tall and 4 feet (1.2 m) wide after 10 years, an annual growth rate of 4 to 6 inches (10 - 15 cm), significantly more outward than up.
'All Gold' is a Dutch selection, introduced to the nursery trade around 2005. Use this cultivar whenever and wherever a golden ground covering conifer is desired. Color and performance are best in full sun. It is fully heat and sun tolerant.
[Stanley & Sons Nursery] A pure gold variety of Japanese shore juniper. Plant prostrate with bright yellow foliage. Very good in sun.
