The Thompson & Morgan Juniperus scopulorum 'Blue Arrow' is perfect for gardeners seeking a structural, low-maintenance evergreen to add height to small spaces without the bulk of wider shrubs. Its primary benefit is its distinct, pencil-like vertical form which provides an elegant architectural accent to modern or formal landscapes. While it is highly versatile and hardy, potential owners should note that it requires consistent sun exposure to maintain its dense foliage and will not thrive in deep, constant shade.

At maturity, it reaches a spread of approximately 50cm (20 inches).
Yes, its narrow size makes it an excellent candidate for large pots on patios or balconies, provided the container has good drainage.
Water regularly during the first year of planting. Once established, it is quite drought-tolerant and only requires watering during extended dry spells.
No, the 'Blue Arrow' naturally maintains its narrow, columnar shape without the need for regular pruning.
It performs best in full sun. In shade, the foliage will lose its dense structure and the beautiful blue-green color may fade.
It is an award given by the Royal Horticultural Society to plants that are proven to perform reliably in garden conditions.
This is often caused by lack of light to the inner branches or poor airflow. Ensure the plant is in full sun and clear out dead needles manually.
In areas with high wind, use a bamboo stake to provide support until the root system has fully anchored into the ground.
When planting your 'Blue Arrow' juniper, select a site that receives full sun to light partial shade. It is compatible with most well-drained soil types, but it is critical to ensure the planting hole does not collect standing water, as the roots can rot in boggy conditions.
Care is minimal: once established, it is fairly drought-tolerant. Yearly checks in late winter to remove any damaged or brown foliage are sufficient to maintain its tidy appearance.
