| Leaves | A vase shaped plant with arching mint green branches. Foliage darkens in cooler weather. |
| Dimensions | 4-6 feet tall by a spread of 6-8 feet. Listed many times as a good foundation plant. To me it is way too large to be any where near the foundation of a house. Best used in commercial setting or in beds and berms away form the house. Space the plant 4-6 feet on center, depending on the desired affect. |
| Misc Facts | Sea Green Juniper is very similar too and may be the same plant as Mint Julep Juniper. |
| Author's Notes | I used these once around a commercial building. I planted to tight and they need pruning to keep to size. Plants reached 3-4 feet by 6 feet wide. Much larger than stated on the label. |
