Juniperus squamata 'Blue Star'
Choose Blue Star Juniper for sunny, dry foundation edges or rock gardens where you want blue evergreen color without much pruning; the tradeoff is that it stays low and will not hide utilities, blank walls, or views quickly.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A- | The blue foliage gives strong contrast in small plantings without taking over the bed. |
| Growth Rate | B- | It builds size at a restrained pace, which helps it stay tidy but limits quick coverage. |
| Maintenance | A | In the right well-drained site, it needs little more than occasional cleanup. |
| Deer Resistance | A- | Deer usually pass this by, since the foliage deters browsing, though no plant is completely immune where pressure is severe. |
| Small Space Fit | A | Its compact mound works well near walks and foundations where taller evergreens would crowd. |
| Screening Value | D | It stays too low and open at eye level to serve as meaningful privacy planting. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Blue Star Juniper as a front-of-bed evergreen accent, not the backbone of a planting. Give it drainage, keep mulch off the crown, and avoid crowding it with fast perennials.

It usually holds blue-gray color, though winter can dull the tone a bit.
Light touch-up is fine, but heavy shearing ruins the natural mound.
No; lean, well-drained soil is usually better than wet, over-amended soil.

They're very "leggy" right now but that's not unexpected in the fall. Otherwise, they look healthy, and we're looking forward to seeing them next year.
These look so good! They're nice and full and lush. Should be amazing next summer.
So far so good! Ordering was easy. So was pickup. We're looking forward to seeing how it does in the spring.
Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!
Really great website, communication and installation. Very happy customer and would recommend them.
They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
