Juniperus communis 'Lemon Carpet' is a low-growing evergreen juniper valued for its vivid spring colour and spreading habit. Fresh growth emerges in bright lemon-yellow tones, creating strong contrast in the garden before settling to yellow-green as the season progresses. Forming a dense, ground-hugging mat, this hardy common juniper provides year-round structure and excellent durability. Fully hardy and tolerant of poor soils and exposed conditions, it is an excellent choice for slopes, rock gardens, and low-maintenance ground cover planting.
