Tortuga® Juniper (Juniperus communis 'SMNJCB') – tough, compact, and built to last! This Proven Winners® variety brings dense, dark green foliage and a neat, mounded shape that adds structure and texture to any sunny space—all with minimal effort.
Hardy to zone 2, Tortuga® is prairie-proof and thrives in harsh conditions including cold winters, wind, and poor soil. It stays compact at 2–3 feet tall and 3–4 feet wide, making it perfect for edging, low hedges, rock gardens, or foundation planting. Plus, it’s deer-resistant and drought-tolerant once established.
Tortuga® prefers full sun and well-drained soil, and doesn’t require pruning to maintain its tidy form. Its rugged, resilient nature makes it ideal for low-maintenance landscapes.
