Juniperus chinensis Kaizuka variegata

Common Name:
Variegated Hollywood Juniper

Description:
Juniperus chinensis 'Kaizuka Variegata' is an eye-catching, evergreen conifer known for its upright, sculptural form and striking variegated foliage. Its twisted, irregular branches are adorned with blue-green needles accented by creamy-white variegation, creating a dramatic, textured appearance. This hardy and drought-tolerant juniper thrives in well-drained soil and prefers full sun but can tolerate part shade. Ideal as a specimen tree, screening plant, or in coastal gardens, 'Kaizuka Variegata' adds year-round structure and colour to landscapes. It requires minimal maintenance and is highly resistant to pests and diseases, making it a fantastic low-care option for Australian gardens.
