Juniperus x pfitzeriana of the family Ephedraceae. There's nothing special about this form of juniper, I just happen to have enough samples of it that I thought I would de-clutter the juniper page by putting these off in their own page. All of these samples came from my friend Mark Peet (with most of them loaned to me after they were sold to David Clark).
Some types of juniper look a lot like aromatic red cedar (a close relative) and some look quite a bit like yew. This particular type looks a LOT like aromatic red cedar.
my samples: NOTE: these pics were all taken in very bright incandescent lighting ("soft white" at 2700K) colors will vary under other lighting conditions
