Weeping blue atlas cedar I believe. They are very peculiar looking evergreens. 🌲

@leaskp1 Thank you! It's the only tree I see around here that I don't understand... I am trying to appreciate it, but they look like something you'd find in a cemetery.... I'm more of a cheery gardener. ;-)

@leaskp1 Thank you so much! I added it to the encyclopedia.

Haha @jennlamaye !! Maybe they should be called cemetery trees. 😂 I've seen them trained to cover chain linked fences or other unattractive fencing. I think they can be interesting with the right setting and plantings. 👍🏼

@leaskp1 - exactly! (But the front porch? Really? Lol.) I just need to read up on what compliments it and get some color in there...

@leaskp1 And... It was probably an expensive tree, given it's slow growth rate. Irony.
