Prostrata Juniper - 'Juniperus Chinensis'

Name: Prostrata Juniper - 'Juniperus Chinensis'
Age: 50 years old
Dimensions: 11.5 inches from soil

Notes:
The Prostrata Juniper and the San Jose Juniper are both cultivars of Chinese Juniper--typically referred to as Juniperus Chinensis 'Prostrata' and Juniperus Chinensis 'San Jose'. These variants of the Chinese Juniper are native to far western China and Central Asia and are thought to be natural crossbreeds with Juniperus Squamata.

They are grown in nurseries in the United States as ornamental landscape plants. In the wild they grow as a large shrub or a small tree; the maximum height one might reach in optimal growing conditions is about thirty feet.
