JUNIPER WICHITA BLUE HEDGE DETAILS
In its native habitat, Rocky Mountain Juniper is often found in rocky high altitude foothills, so it can tolerate fairly extreme climates. Typically, Rocky Mountain Juniper takes a wide pyramidal shape, has a distinctive shedding red-brown bark and has deep green needles on thin, sinewy branches. In the wild, the tree can grow up to 50 feet tall and 20 feet wide. Wichita Blue Juniper Hedge is a variety with bright blue foliage and a slower growth rate. A mature size, without pruning, would be 10' tall by 6' wide. With Juniper Wichita Blue pruning as a hedge, you could keep it anywhere from 6-12' tall over the long run.
