My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Need Sub For Juniperus Green Mound

15 years ago

I was wondering if anyone had any ideas for a substitute for Juniperus procumbens 'Green Mound' (about 1' h x 6'w), for a Japanese-ish style garden, in Pasadena. It would have to be something around the same size, and would need to be oak root rot resistant, low water, and full sun. The Green Mound succumbed to the Oak Root Rot. :(

Any ideas?

Thanks so much!

MT
