Understanding Plant Options
Nature Hills offers plants in two main formats:
- Container Plants: Grown in pots with soil, sized by container volume and plant age
- Bare Root Plants: Dormant plants without soil, sized by height measurements
Container Plant Sizes
Container sizes indicate plant age and growing capacity rather than liquid volume equivalents. Our containers follow industry-standard nursery "trade gallon" specifications, which differ from standard liquid gallon measurements.

Growing Zones
The ground-hugging and far-reaching Broadmoor Juniper Bush (Juniperus sabina 'Broadmoor') provides yards with an even sweep of green. It is known for its ability to green up unattractive regions of the yard and its extremely hardy nature
Unlike some Junipers, the Broadmoor Juniper's foliage is soft and featherlike, growing to create a wind-swept appearance. The Broadmoor Juniper grows in a prostrate form, staying low to the ground and spreading outward. It produces strong, long branches that sprout upward from the center, but quickly settle along the ground
Broadmoor's branches remain covered in green foliage that tends to have tinges of blue during warm weather and turns gold for the winter. Hardy throughout USDA planting zones 3 to 7, these evergreens spread up to 4-6 feet wide while only growing 12-18 inches tall!
Landscape Application:
This ultra-low growing ground cover features dense and attractive coverage for hard-to-plant areas of the yard. Because of its ability to thrive in dry, rocky, soil with full sun, many gardeners plant their Broadmoor Juniper in their rock gardens or raised retaining walls. They are also effortless mass plantings when you need greenery all year round on a large scale!
Its soft needles also make it an ideal low-growing shrub for highly trafficked areas. If your little ones run barefoot in the backyard or you don't want your ankles getting scratched on your walking path, the Broadmoor Juniper will surely make your day.
The Broadmoor Juniper looks best when allowed to spread over rock or mulch, keeping its free-form appearance. It will naturally cascade and overflow onto walkways or over retaining walls. It can be pruned and conform to boxes and beds, though.
Use your Broadmoor Juniper shrubs as a foundation planting, border, low-growing hedge, or as an erosion-reducing groundcover that also blocks weeds!
- Versatile & Attractive Spreading Juniper
- Lovely Bluish-Green Coloration
- Expressive Form, Great for Rock Gardens & Retaining Walls
- Hardy Prostrate Evergreen Shrub
- Groundcover, Weed-Block & Landscape Filler, Containers & Edging
#ProPlantTips for Care:
Grow in full sun, in hotter climates Junipers appreciate afternoon shade. Plant Junipers in almost any type of well-drained soil with Nature Hills Root Booster for lifelong symbiotic root support. Provide moderate moisture access during their first years but once established, these evergreen shrubs become drought-tolerant. If needed, prune Junipers after their initial flush of growth in the spring.
Junipers are highly adaptable to heavy snow, cold, as well as excessive heat. They thrive in rocky or sandy soil and are highly tolerant of urban pollution! Even the deer will usually leave it alone in favor of tastier treats unless desperate! These shrubs even handle coastal and saline conditions!
- Full Sun Shrubs
- Junipers Need Well-Drained Soil
- Best In Moderate to Low Moisture Environments
- Prune If Needed In Spring
- Deer, Heat, Chill & Pest Resistant
