I'm going with Shimpaku also thought, squamatas arent a scale juniper

There are many ways to do things, but only one "best" way.

Re: Juniper squamata Before & After
Thats a very nice pot the semis in
John, they look very much like what are called procumbens over here, especially with the mature and immature foliage. Which I have not seen happen with the Squamatas here.
Very nice trees and my size too.
Cheers Pup
