Juniperus sabina, known as the savin juniper, is a hardy evergreen conifer native to the mountains of Europe and Asia. This versatile shrub typically exhibits a spreading growth habit, reaching heights of 4 to 6 feet and widths up to 10 feet. Its dense foliage features both needle-like juvenile and scale-like adult leaves that stay deep green year-round. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soils, it is drought-tolerant and ideal for erosion control on slopes or as a low-maintenance hedge.
