Need an id on this juniper :)

Post by Olivecrazy »

Ive collected some seeds from this tree theres alot around where i live they all very big might of been planted around the same time im thinking. Have noticed seedlings here an there so sort ill be able to get some to grow have no idea what they are tho but foliage looks ideal even in low light areas of the tree the foliage is still very compact. If some one could id this tree that would be great ;)
