Juniperus conferta ‘Blue Pacific’

Juninperus conferta 'Blue Pacific' is a dwarf selection of Shore juniper with a low, trailing growth habit and soft feathery Blue-green foliage with gray berries. It is quite tolerant of shade, salt spray and wind. After 10 years of growth a mature specimen will measure 1 to 1.5 feet (30 - 45 cm) tall and 6 feet (2 m) wide, an average growth rate of 6 to 8 inches (15 - 20 cm), significantly more outward than up.

This cultivar was introduced to the nursery trade in 1972 by Monrovia Nursery, inc. California, USA. It is sometimes seen incorrectly listed under the cultivar name, 'Blue Shore.'
