Juniperus chinensis ‘Old Gold’ is an evergreen conifer with a compact, low-spreading, mounding habit and featuring new foliage that is canary-yellow while older inner foliage is a grass-green color. Uses include weed suppression, erosion control, low hedges, borders, mass plantings. Very tolerant of seacoast, intermountain, and desert conditions. It performs best in full sun. While it survives in partial shade, the golden foliage will fade to a duller green-gold. Highly adaptable to sandy, loamy, clay, or rocky soils. Requires good drainage; it has zero tolerance for waterlogged, soggy conditions. Moderate water use when planted; Low water use once established. It is highly drought resistant. Very deer and rabbit-resistant. Resistant to Verticillium wilt. Cold hardy to -30°F.
