- Ultra‑slim, upright column with tight, bright blue foliage—ideal where space is limited.
- Moderate grower maturing about 12–15 ft. tall and only ~2 ft. wide for strong vertical accents.
- Easy‑care, waterwise evergreen: deer/rabbit resistant, tolerant of urban pollution and road salt.
- Silvery blue berry-like cones add seasonal interest and support birds from late spring into winter.
Blue Arrow Juniper (Juniperus scopulorum ‘Blue Arrow’) delivers dramatic, architectural height in the narrowest footprints. A refined, columnar form cloaked in vivid blue‑green foliage, it’s the cold‑climate answer to Italian cypress—perfect for tall, narrow privacy screens, flanking entries, or punctuating modern beds. Plant in full sun and well‑drained soil; once established, this tough, low‑maintenance conifer stays sleek and colorful year‑round while shrugging off urban conditions and bringing wildlife‑friendly berries to the winter garden.
Plant Description
Upright, pencil‑slim Rocky Mountain juniper selection with a naturally tight, columnar habit and bright blue‑green foliage that reads as a living exclamation point in the landscape.
Foliage & Color
Dense, fine‑textured, blue‑green sprays hold vivid color through the seasons, providing strong contrast against warm‑toned plantings and stone.
Berries (Cones)
Female plants produce showy, silvery blue berry‑like cones that persist from late spring into winter—ornamental in arrangements and beneficial for birds.
Sun Requirements
Full sun (6+ hours) for the tightest habit and best blue color; suitable for open, exposed sites.
Watering Needs
Water deeply and regularly the first season to establish roots; thereafter, water when the top 2 inches of soil are dry—avoid chronically wet sites.
Soil Requirements
Highly adaptable; grows in a wide range of soils, including clay, alkaline, and compacted soils, provided drainage is good.
Growth & Size
Moderate growth to roughly 12–15 ft. tall and about 2 ft. wide, maintaining a naturally narrow silhouette without shearing.
Special Features
Easy care and waterwise once established; deer and rabbit resistant; tolerant of urban pollution and road salt; evergreen structure for four‑season interest.
Landscape Uses
Tall, narrow privacy screens and windbreaks; formal pairs to flank gates and entries; vertical punctuation in modern borders; impactful container accents in large, well‑drained planters.
Care Instructions
Plant in full sun with well‑drained soil. Water consistently the first growing season; reduce frequency once established. Feed with a general‑purpose fertilizer in early spring. Prune only to remove any wayward or damaged shoots.
Design Tips
Use as the cold‑hardy stand‑in for Italian cypress to bring Mediterranean form to temperate gardens; repeat in staggered groups to frame views and create rhythm without adding width.
