Re: Forestry ID
Rocky Mountain Juniper is correct. I actually have no idea how to tell the difference between the junipers. Anyone have tips?

Re: Forestry ID
when i was studying the national list awhile back, i put this in my notesWadhk wrote:Rocky Mountain Juniper is correct. I actually have no idea how to tell the difference between the junipers. Anyone have tips?
utah
-yellow-green leaves; berry-like cone; coarser, angular, upright branches (compared to rocky); resin gland inconspicuous, berrylike cone BLUE(YOUNG)->RED-BROWN with white bloom (waxy coating)
rocky mountain
-lacy, droopier branches; conspicuous resin gland on each leaf, berrylike cone BRIGHT blue with white bloom (waxy coating)
eastern redcedar
-two types of leaves: needle-like, scale-like; resin gland on each leaf, berrylike cone DARK blue with white bloom (waxy coating), cone smaller than other junipers (1/8 - 1/4", rocky mountain&utah are 1/4-1/2")
not sure if it's completely right because i don't remember where i got the info from haha, but hope it helped

*edit: my first post yayyyy
