Notes

'Good Vibrations Gold' creeping juniper (Juniperus horizontalis 'Good Vibrations Gold') is a shrub for ground cover, rock gardens, borders, and low maintenance beds. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to average soil of most types. Deer rarely make it their first choice. It stays low and spreads wide, so give it room to roam. The evergreen foliage stays on the plant through winter, and it tolerates drought and salt.

Pairs well with Frosted Curls sedge, Little bluestem, and Deep Blue Clips tussock bellflower.
