Features and uses:
Juniperus communis Repanda belongs to the family of cupressaceae, and is a native dwarf conifer of North America, well developed in Asia Minor and Europe.
This
juniper, like all
conifers, is evergreen, formed by many brown branches that grow in all directions and a large number of tiny needle-shaped
green leaves, whose tips then become bronze and broken if fragrant. It develops very slowly, with a
creepy appearance and a compact appearance, great to use as a floor cover.
The
Juniperus communis Repanda favors sunny or semi-shaded positions, and
tolerates many different types of soil, such as sandy, limestone, clayey, damp and dry, but always better if well drained.
This dwarf conifera is very
resistant to cold and also to diseases, and it
is not necessary to do pruning because its dimensions are already contained. You can just spice some branch to give the plant the desired shape.
The
Juniperus communis Repanda lends itself
well in various environments, such as rocky, alpine, mediterranean, historic,
as well as single shrubs and mixed flower beds, perhaps combined with coniferous shapes and colors to give a touch of elegance and good taste the green area.
Some combinations suggested to create a charming bedding without maintenance requirements are:
Juniperus Limeglow,
Juniperus Blue Chip,
Chamaecyparis Snow White,
Thuja Sunny Smaragd
