Microbiota decussata
Choose Russian Cypress for a low evergreen cover in shade where junipers thin out; the tradeoff is it wants protected, well-drained soil that does not dry out hard.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | B | It gives a soft evergreen carpet, but it reads quiet rather than showy. |
| Growth Rate | B- | It spreads at a workable pace once settled, but it will not cover a large area quickly. |
| Maintenance | A- | Once placed in protected, drained soil, it needs little pruning beyond edge control. |
| 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 | C | It stays low, but its natural spread can overwhelm narrow foundation beds. |
| Screening Value | F | It is a groundcover, so it will not block views or create privacy. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Russian Cypress where a customer wants evergreen coverage but the site is too shaded for most creeping junipers. Do not force it into dry, windy spots.

No, it only looks similar in shape and has softer, arborvitae-like foliage.
Not well; it needs shade with decent moisture and drainage.
Usually only enough to keep the edges where you want them.

Bought 8-10 ft and all were barely 8 if you count the container. Trees are thin and lots of brown branches and broken branches due you thrown in box truck no wrapping or anything. Hoping they survive and thicken up quick…
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!
Very nice
Guys installed for me as well
Great job
Huge selection and fast delivery. All plants arrived in great condition.
Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
