Overview & Description

Blue Arrow Juniper (Juniperus scopulorum ‘Blue Arrow’) is a very narrow, tight, columnar evergreen prized for its striking steel-blue foliage and silver-blue ornamental berries. This low-maintenance conifer maintains its dense, upright form naturally without excessive pruning, offering exceptional architectural interest in the landscape. Its slender silhouette makes it a standout choice for formal gardens and space-conscious plantings.

Growth & Size

This variety exhibits a very narrow, columnar, upright growth habit. It is a slow to moderate-growing conifer, typically reaching a mature size of about 13 feet in height with a spread of only 24 inches.

Additional Notes

It does not have showy flowers. Hardy to Zone 3, it tolerates urban pollution and is drought tolerant once established. An outstanding choice for small spaces, privacy screens, backgrounds, borders, formal gardens, and xeriscapes where very narrow columnar form, steel-blue foliage, and low-maintenance performance are desired.
