A truly sculptural specimen, this cloud-pruned Juniper has been patiently trained into sweeping tiered pom pom layers that give it an almost bonsai-like drama at full scale. Its dense, blue-green feathery foliage holds its shape beautifully throughout the year, making it a year-round focal point in any garden. Perfect for formal gardens, contemporary courtyard settings, or as an impressive entrance planting — this is the kind of tree that stops people in their tracks.
Care
Thrives in full sun to partial shade. Tolerates a wide range of well-drained soils including chalk, clay, and sandy types. Once established, extremely drought tolerant. Prune lightly in late spring or early autumn to maintain the cloud shapes — use sharp shears to neaten individual pom poms. Avoid waterlogged conditions. Hardy and low-maintenance once settled.
Hardiness: H5
