Hillside Creeper Pine
Hillside creeper pine is a low-growing evergreen shrub. It grows in an undulating, rambling shape, making it suitable as a slightly taller groundcover. It has green needles that turn lighter in the winter.
This evergreen has performed very well in the Pikes Peak region, making it a reliable, long-lived shrub. In the right spot, it can be a good alternative to groundcover junipers. Make sure it has enough space to reach its full size.
