Wichita Blue Juniper
Beautiful blue-green evergreen plant that (in the desert) will stay under 15’. Very drought tolerant and easy to grow. Usually sold as a 15 gal. plant. No trimming required.

Spartan Juniper
Green upright plant that is very similar to the Wichita Blue Juniper above. We sell lots of these upright junipers in Rio Rancho. They are not legal in Albuquerque because of allergies.


Arizona Cypress (Blue Ice)
The green variety is the one you see growing wild on the way to Sedona or Phoenix. “Blue Ice” makes a good substitute for Colorado Blue Spruce it takes our heat better and grows a lots faster. Very drought tolerant but only for large properties. 25’ tall x 15’ is average in the high desert.

Eleagnus
 Evergreen screen for large yards. Does not have significant blooms. Can grow to10'x10'. Grows Quickly and looks more natural if you don't trim it into a ball like the photo.


Poor planning!

No –you can’t cut back Junipers once they are big.
