Default [IBC] Blue Vase Juniper

Sorry, my last message about finding a bunch of junipers at a
landscape place. The tag said only Blue Vase Juniper. Anyone

know
anything about 'em ?


Blue vase juniper is one of the multitude (in the hundreds, by
now) of cultivars of Juniperus chinensis, the Chinese juniper.

Dirr says: "Vase-shaped form with good summer and winter
foliage; supposedly intermediate between upright and spreading
type; dense steel blue (?) primarily scale-like foliage; moderate
growth rate, 4 to 5' high, 3 to 4' wide; have seen 10 to 15' high
plants in Georgia."

Jim Lewis - - Tallahassee, FL - Only where
people have learned to appreciate and cherish the landscape and
its living cover will they treat it with the care and respect it
should have - Paul Bigelow Sears.
