Purchased Spring 2024



Worked in late Summer and repotted with boulder


Tree responding nicely to being repotted, pruned, and fertilized. Pushing new growth:





Happy little tree

Look like a happy little guy!
Foliage looks like Hinoki

Cool little tree, looks like possible
Juniperus horizontalis 'Wiltonii'

Looking forward to the progression

I don't think this is a Juniper but some kind of chamaecyparis obtusa.

That's not a juniper. It being a hinoki variant, that's key in how you handle it, keeping in mind the reluctance hinoki has to backbudding compared to junipers.

I wish I knew what it is (plant finder app doesn’t know)

was that the original nursery container? Maybe you could contact Monrovia nursery with a photo? Someone there would probably be able to help you figure it out.
