| There is an evergreen tree in our neighborhood that my wife and I both really like and would like to know what the name of the tree is. I've search online and come up with no clear answer.
See the attached photos below. It doesn't appear much in ht pictures, but the needles are shiny/waxy. I live in Cleveland, Ohio so our zone is 4-6 depending on which chart you use.

| Find the cultivar 'Wintergreen'. It's the hardiest of all Umbrella pines & is very easy to locate. Bethlehem Nursery specializes in Sciadopity's... Dax |

| See the lines down the middles? Each "needle" is actually two, that can be peeled apart. |
