Microbiota is a radiating low shrub that
serves as a fine-textured prostrate woody groundcover. It undergoes a
color transformation in autumn to a brown winter color and will perform
admirably in full sun to partial shade in dry, wind-exposed sites.

An excellent
shade tolerant replacement for juniper, Microbiota offers graceful, lacy,
deep evergreen foliage that is wider than tall. Overcast with a lovely
plum color in winter, this plant is very hardy and truly underplanted.
