Juniperus horizontalis 'Andorra Compact' is a low-growing evergreen juniper valued for its tidy, mound-forming habit and dependable foliage colour. The plant produces soft blue-green growth through the warmer months, forming a compact cushion that spreads gradually. In colder weather, the foliage often takes on purple to bronze tones, adding seasonal interest. Exceptionally tough, drought-tolerant once established, and fully hardy, this juniper is an excellent choice for low-maintenance borders, slopes, and rock gardens.
