Juniperus Chinensis 'Armstrongii'

Common Name: Juniper Chinensis 'Armstrong'

Juniperus chinensis ‘Armstrong’ — commonly called Armstrong Chinese juniper — is an evergreen shrub with dense medium-green foliage and a broad spreading habit formed by arching horizontal branches. Its fine-textured evergreen growth creates a low, wide mound that provides dependable year-round structure and makes it useful where a durable spreading conifer is needed.
