We have these trees on our cottage property in Eastern Ontario. We have lost about 5 of them over the years and want to start some new ones. However, we are not sure on the name of the tree? Here is 3 pictures of a tree that fell this past winter. Does any one know what tree this is? I thought it was a western red cedar? Image One - Overview Image Two - Close up of foilage Image Three - view of trunk Thanks Luke
Guessing it may be Cryptomeria japonica, Japanese cedar. A cone photo may help. It isn't a western red cedar, Thuja plicata. Neither are actually true cedars.
Looks more like a juniper or a cypress to me, but the pic is too small to tell for sure. Can you get a close-up of some foliage?
Yeah I will get a close up this weekend. I will be going back to the cottage to grind some of the stumps from the fallen trees. Thanks Luke
