| Hi!
My father in law bought a bunch of plants from a nursery going out of business. I've managed to ID all except these two, "Evergreen A" and "Evergreen B". A is about 5 ft. tall, B is maybe 2.5' tall, and looks like it's been pruned to attain the upright shape. I don't suppose anyone smarter than me could ID these, please? http://s1062.beta.photobucket.com/user/himynameisjonc/library/Mystery% 20Evergreens Thanks so much! --JC |

| Top one is a Juniperus chinensis cultivar, most likely 'Torulosa'. The bottom one is one of the threadleaf/gold cultivars of Chamaecyparis pisifera, such as Chamaecyparis pisifera 'Filifera Aurea'. |
