Parsoni Juniper thrives in full sun and performs best in well-drained soil. It is extremely drought-tolerant once established and adapts well to sandy, rocky, or poor soils. It’s an ideal plant for hot, dry, and low-maintenance areas, but avoid planting in wet or shaded spots.
Parsoni is a low, spreading evergreen that typically grows to about 2–3 feet tall and 5–6 feet wide. It forms a dense, ground-hugging mat, making it perfect for foundation plantings, slopes, retaining walls, and erosion control.
This cultivar has soft-textured, bluish-green foliage with a slightly silvery cast. The foliage maintains its color well year-round and provides a cool-toned contrast to other landscape plants, especially during winter months.
Yes, like most junipers, Parsoni is highly deer-resistant. Its aromatic, textured foliage is not palatable to deer or rabbits, making it a dependable evergreen in areas with browsing pressure.
Parsoni Juniper is low-maintenance and holds its form naturally, so pruning is generally not necessary. If shaping is desired, light trimming can be done in early spring, but avoid cutting into old wood, as it may not recover.
