[IBC] Another ID Crisis
I bought a plant at a local nursery labeled Cupressus sempervirens. It is
bluish and has a fanatically fastigiate growth habit. However, when I got a close look, it has almost all needles and looks like a juniper. At first I thought it might be a juvenile, but it is 18 inches tall and no baby seedling. I had a C. s. 'Swane's Golden,' and it had all scales from day one. This thing reminds me of J. scopulorum 'Blue Spire,' but it's hard to tell from pictures on the Web. Of course it is not going to oblige me by producing cones in March. It is not J. communis. The needles are much shorter. It has been happily growing under lights for the past couple months, but I don't know what that proves. Any idea what I've got?
