hello again this tree is growing in Gunderson park in Delta i took this picture on Thursday Aug 22, 2024 I did a google search for blue /green needles and i only came up with spruce which it is not The needles in this image are very prickly and finely cut It had a pleasant aroma when slightly crushed. thanks as always for your assistance sincerely Gail Hall
I am awaiting expert reply a type of spruce ? Hemlock ? do you have a « context » photo showing neighbor trees etc —- the setting What is around this plant ? is it tall —- etc
i did not take a context picture. it is a solo specimen amidst Douglas firs and a wild cherry tree when the rain lets up i will go back and take more pictures thanks for the heads up
A juvenile foliage cultivar of a juniper. First thought was a similar juvenile foliage cultivar of Sawara Cypress Chamaecyparis pisifera 'Squarrosa', but that is fairly soft, not prickly.
