Savin Juniper
What: Savin Juniper (Juniperus sabina) is a classic landscape juniper featuring wide-spreading arching branches and rich green evergreen foliage that remains attractive year-round. This dwarf conifer produces ornamental blue berries from late spring through winter, adding seasonal interest.
Best use: Ideal for creating massing effects in the landscape with its sprawling habit and soft texture. Perfect for groupings to create architectural interest in prairie gardens. Also excellent as a groundcover or for general garden use in areas needing a durable, low-maintenance evergreen.
