Planting
To ensure successful growth, it is important to have well-drained soil for this variety of juniper, which thrives in slightly acidic to neutral soil but can also adapt to other types. Prepare the planting area by loosening the soil to a depth of 12 inches (30 cm), removing any weeds, rocks, or debris. If the soil is heavy or clay-like, adding organic matter like compost can improve both drainage and fertility. Carefully dig a hole that is slightly wider but no deeper than the plant's root ball, and gently rough up the sides to promote root penetration. Carefully remove the plant from its container, being mindful not to disturb the roots, and place the root ball in the center of the hole, ensuring it is level with the surrounding soil. Fill in the hole with soil, gently tamping it down to remove air pockets. After planting, be sure to thoroughly water the plant to help it settle and hydrate the roots.
