Juniper Question
 

I have a fairly steep embankment I would like to cover with some low
maintaince ground cover. We are leaning towards junipers for this. I would
like to have the large type and I dont know the names of the species. I
would like them to eventually be between 2-4 foot tall with a wide rapid
spread. Any suggestions?




Thanks

The most common cultivar in southern New Mexico (USDA zone 8, Sunset
zone 10) for your purpose is _Juniperus sabina_ `Tamariscifolia' (Tam
Juniper). They can reach 2-4' tall and 10' in diameter.

LOL, I am sorry I should have stated that I am in Eastern Tennesse, just a
stones throw away from Madgardener.

And smell like cat pee in the sun. But regardless of location - they grow
just as well in Tennessee - and aroma, this is the species of juniper that
is most likely to produce the results you want

And they produce those lovely little spores that those of us with
allergies so dearly love in the spring...
