Juniperus communis 'Sentinel' is a slender, upright evergreen conifer valued for its extremely narrow form and tough constitution. The blue-green needle foliage is held close to the stem, creating a strong vertical accent that takes up very little ground space. Fully hardy and tolerant of poor soils, wind, and cold, this common juniper selection is ideal for containers, gravel gardens, and architectural planting where a clean, upright shape is required with minimal maintenance.
