    Hello,

    Any help would be appreciated in identifying this tree I got as a gift. I just want to make sure I care for it properly and shape it once I know what it is.

    Ty in advance for any help!

    Looks juniper-ish to me.

    ty for the reply and the welcoming guys. I thought it may have been juniper but wasn't too sure, because of the spiky leaf type, the juniper I'm used to seeing doesn't look lime this.

    But thanks for verifying, now I need to figure out the design for this baby:)
