Juniper shrubs vary in size and shape from very low-growing groundcover to quite tall columns. Juniper shrubs are evergreen and usually planted as low, spreading, bush-type plants. There are approximately 50 species of junipers with hundreds of cultivated varieties available. They are found in most countries in the northern hemisphere. Juniper shrubs are low maintenance, drought tolerant and perform quite well in rock gardens. Most varieties of juniper require very little pruning, if any, unless you desire a topiary effect. Be sure to leave enough room for the juniper plant to spread.
