Blue Chip Juniper (Juniperus horizontalis 'Blue Chip') – low, cool, and effortlessly stylish! This hardy ground-hugger is known for its striking blue foliage, which holds its colour beautifully through summer and turns silvery-purple in winter for year-round interest.
Extremely hardy to zone 2, Blue Chip Juniper is a Prairie staple. It stays low and wide, growing about 1 foot tall and spreading 6–8 feet, making it ideal for rock gardens, slopes, retaining walls, or filling in tough, sunny spots where grass won’t grow.
It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, and once established, it’s drought-tolerant and virtually maintenance-free. No pruning required—just plant and enjoy the colour and coverage.
