Common Juniper 'Meyer'

Common Juniper 'Meyer' (Juniperus communis Meyer). This is a time-tested classic for the garden — a very hardy, dense coniferous shrub with a distinct architectural form.

Here is a precise and concise description for the product card:

Key characteristics of the cultivar

• Crown shape and habit: A slender, dense, broadly columnar or cup-shaped crown. The branches grow vertically upwards, while the side shoots branch out slightly, which makes the shrub very fluffy and dense from the very ground.
• Foliage colour and texture: The needles are needle-like, dense and prickly. They have a beautiful rich green or soft green colour with a distinct silvery-blue stripe on the upper side of each needle. Thanks to this, the shrub appears slightly greyish.
• Growth rate: Grows moderately fast for a juniper. The annual growth in height is 10–15 cm, and in width — about 5 cm.
• Dimensions: At 10 years of age it reaches about 1.5–2 m in height. An adult plant grows up to 3–4 m tall and up to 1–1.2 m in diameter.
