Chinese Juniper 'Hetzii', Juniperus virginiana 'Hetzii', Juniperus x media 'Hetzii'
Quite popular, Juniperus × pfitzeriana ‘Hetzii’ (Chinese Juniper) is a vigorous, spreading, evergreen shrub with vase-shaped, ascending branches clothed in silvery blue-green scale-like foliage that gives it a smooth touch. The foliage usually retains good color in winter. Growing 6-8 in. per year (15-20 cm), this female selection produces small, round, blue-purple cones that are very ornamental. Valued for its decorative effect throughout the year, this showy Juniper makes a wonderful specimen plant.
