Planting & Care

Planting Instructions for Sea Green Juniper

  1. Choosing the Right Location: Plant Sea Green Juniper in full sun in USDA zones 4 through 9, where it gets at least six hours of direct sunlight each day. In too much shade junipers become thin and open and lose their full, fountain-like shape.
  2. Soil Preparation: This adaptable evergreen grows in many soil types as long as the area drains well. Avoid places where water stays around the roots, and loosen the soil across a wide area before planting.
  3. Planting: Dig a hole about twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep, setting the plant level with the ground. It grows about 4 to 6 feet tall and 6 to 8 feet wide. Space plants 5 to 6 feet apart for a hedge or mass planting, allow the full 6 to 8 feet for specimens, and keep it several feet from walkways and foundations.
  4. Mulching and First Watering: Water deeply right after planting to settle the soil. Spread 2 to 3 inches of mulch around and between plants, keeping it a few inches away from the stems, to hold moisture and keep weeds down while the plants fill in.

Care Instructions

  1. Watering: Water regularly while it is becoming established, keeping the soil moist but not soggy. Once the roots settle in, Sea Green Juniper is easier to care for and handles drier conditions.
  2. Fertilizing: Junipers need little fertilizer. If growth is weak, apply a light slow-release fertilizer for evergreens in early spring. Rich soil and heavy feeding are not needed and can cause soft, floppy growth.
  3. Pest and Disease Monitoring: Watch for tip blight, which browns branch tips in wet springs, and prune out affected shoots in dry weather. Check for bagworms in early summer and spider mites during hot, dry spells, which cause dull, speckled foliage. Good air flow and dry foliage prevent most problems.

Maintenance and Long-Term Care

  1. Pruning: Sea Green usually needs very little pruning because its natural fountain shape stays attractive on its own. Prune lightly to remove damaged growth or control size. Avoid cutting into old, bare wood, since junipers rarely regrow from it.
  2. Winter Care: Sea Green is evergreen and keeps its rich green foliage all winter. Water deeply before the ground freezes in fall, and brush off heavy, wet snow to protect the arching branches.
  3. Growing in Containers: Grow it in a big pot with drainage holes and a well-draining mix on patios, decks and entryways. Containers dry out faster, so check moisture often in summer.

Additional Tips for Growing Sea Green Juniper

  1. Natural Hedges: Plant several in a row and let the arching branches grow together for a dense, natural-looking low hedge with a softer look than a clipped hedge.
  2. Design Ideas: Its soft green color pairs well with flowering shrubs, ornamental grasses and stone, and it helps soften corners and walls in foundation beds. Due to state plant regulations, Sea Green Juniper cannot ship to California.
