This compact evergreen groundcover, with its bright green new growth in the spring that turns a bronze-purple in the winter, is an excellent year-round choice for landscaping. Its dense branching and full center, growing 2 feet tall, make it a versatile option as a foundation plant and groundcover.
The low-maintenance Andorra Compacta juniper is a very hardy and useful variety that can be employed in a range of applications, from low-growing foundation plantings to groundcovers, and even as low-height accents around taller plantings. Its foliage is dense, bright green, and arranged at a 45-degree angle from the bottom and center of the plant, contributing to its overall appealing and undemanding appearance.
This juniper variety also displays an interesting winter color, with the bulk of the outer foliage exhibiting a purplish bronze hue. As temperatures moderate in the spring, this winter coloration dissipates, reverting back to the plant's normal green color.
Andorra Compacta requires minimal maintenance to retain its neat, tidy shape. However, an annual light pruning around the edges can help ensure that the center of the plant remains at its fullest, particularly in warmer climates.
To ensure the growth of a mature root system, this low-maintenance evergreen requires a regular watering schedule. Once the root system is established, occasional watering is sufficient, except during drought periods when more frequent watering is necessary.
In terms of environmental preferences, Andorra Compacta thrives in full sun and is adaptable to most soil types, though it prefers well-drained soil. It is also a cold-hardy variety, suitable for USDA Hardiness Zones 3-9.
Overall, the Andorra Compacta juniper is a versatile and low-maintenance evergreen that can serve a variety of landscaping purposes, from foundation plantings to groundcovers, while offering a unique and visually appealing appearance throughout the seasons.
