any one know this one? I'm transplanting this one and would like a few more for the garden.
foliage looks sort of cypress but its growing more like a ground cover.. this is just 1 plant in the picture..

I think Alpineart is on the money, or it could be Silver spreader.

There is another one that is in NZ Cupressus glabra, Hodginsii that also has this blue foliage.
