Looking for a stunning, low-maintenance ground cover plant that will also help to suppress weeds? Look no further than Juniperus lutchuensis!

This tough little plant is perfect for Mediterranean or seaside gardens, and can even tolerate droughts and severe frost. It has rich, soft evergreen foliage with a grey undertone, and produces green berry-like seed cones which ripen to purple-brown.

Juniperus lutchuensis is best planted in a full sun position with well-drained moist soil, and should be pruned when necessary to keep it tidy. Water regularly to establish the plant, and mulch well around it to reduce moisture loss. For a healthy plant, use slow-release fertilisers.
