Soil erosion - ground cover
-
Debi53 on Jun 03, 2015We have planted the same type of junipers in our sloping yard. I would recommend going with the same thing, because in a few years your existing junipers will fill in that area. If you go with something different, you will always be trying to cut the junipers back to keep them from invading your other plants.Helpful Reply

Duv310660 on Jun 04, 2015I'd recommend doing as much as you can to pin down the problem, because if it's pests or soil issues, you need to know how to keep it from returning.Helpful Reply

Debi53 on Jun 04, 2015duval.26 is right. You do need to find out what is causing your problem. You might take your pictures & a cutting of the problem area (if you have one) to your local county extension agent. They might be able to help.Helpful Reply

Ruth P on Jun 06, 2015The junipers are nice but have you considered liriope (also called lilyturf)? It's like small tufts of grass that grow together and really bind the soil. Every year they bloom with several beautiful purple flowers. They come in two varieties - solid dark green or light green. Both have the flowers.Helpful Reply
