Should I let the troops guess?

some kinda cedar

[Grannyknot]

I was going to guess some sort of cedar as well.

I'll spoil your fun Doug.  Cryptomeria japonica, probably the cultivar 'Yoshino'.  Often referred to as Japanese cedar.

[natureboy]

eastern red?

[Woolly Bugger]

Fin is correct!

[tomato can]

I love cryptomeria!

[The Dude]

Eastern red cedar always reminds me of civil war battlefields in Virginia - particularly Manassas.

I love cryptomeria!

Likewise.  My collection of cryptomeria has grown to eight (and counting) different selections.  From 30' specimen trees to 2'x2' green pincushions.  They do well in sun or shade, are drought tolerant once established, and the damn wood goats do NOT like to munch on them.  Unfortunately, the bucks do seem to enjoy using the smaller diameter cryptomerias for their rubs in the fall.  Really worked over one of mine this past November but I think it will recover.  Where's my rifle?  Damn deer.

Fin is a ringer. Didn't know he was lurking.

The Dude just brought back major memories for me.... many hours in that park

cedar reminds me of post hole diggers and fence lines.
