This offers excellent year-round color and texture in the landscape.\r\nSize \u0026amp; Form: It is a dwarf, compact shrub with a broadly spreading habit of growth. It typically grows to about 2–3 feet (0.6–0.9 meters) tall with a spread of 3–5 feet (0.9–1.5 meters) at maturity.\r\nHardiness: Extremely cold-hardy and a reliable choice for Canadian climates, rated for Canadian Hardiness Zone 3 to 9.\r\nTolerances: Highly adaptable, it is tolerant of drought once established, poor soils (including clay, sandy, and rocky soils if well-drained), deer, and urban pollution\r\nLight: Requires full sun (at least 6 hours of direct sun daily) to maintain its optimal golden color and compact form.\r\nWater: Water deeply during its first growing season to establish a robust root system. Once established, it is drought-tolerant, requiring less frequent watering. It will not tolerate standing water and needs well-drained soil.\r\nMaintenance: This is a low-maintenance shrub that requires minimal pruning to maintain its natural, compact shape. Pruning can be done in late winter or early spring if needed to remove dead branches or lightly shape the plant.\r\n","brand":"Bylands Nurseries","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49717953462512,"sku":"74554","price":33.98,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0421\/3617\/4760\/files\/74554-1.jpg?v=1780773391","url":"https:\/\/floralacres.ca\/products\/juniper-2-gal-gold-coast-88013","provider":"Floral Acres Greenhouse \u0026 Garden Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
