| Thank you! After googling Tam Juniper I agree, it looks just like it. I thought maybe Buffalo Juniper but Tam looks like the ticket. Never heard of it, I wonder if it's hard to find. Hope not, it's pretty good looking for a juniper! :) |

| I don't think you will have a hard time finding a Juniper tam. Around here, it's the most common Juniper of all. It's also invariably planted too close to a sidewalk or driveway. It gets over 12 ft. wide and doesn't look well when sheared to keep it in bounds. |

| Stunning at its current size and in that location. I think this is the same one that I've also seen spilling down a retaining wall - it does that very well too. I agree that sheared it wouldn't do it's thing nicely at all. Hi again Botann! Long time no see. KarinL |

| 'Tamariscifolia' and 'Buffalo' are both Savin junipers. There are others as well. |
