Bottom left of first pic is a spider plant, doing very well, to give an idea of growing conditions in said room...

Struggling with this one sloth, i need a bit more time on it:blush: I'm sure it'll come to me eventually:biggrin:

[sloth]

Take as much time as you need, or none at all, its ok to give up on it! :sly:

Whats this?

[RobArb]

What tree did you get if off:lol:

 

 

no seriously, where those branches drooping/weeping?

 

what was the form of the tree?

 

are those needle deciduous?

 

how many needles are "grouped together" in there sheath or ontop the branch?

 

any better pics or info?

 

where ther any stomatal bands, if so, how many? 1, 2?

 

how long are those needles?

 

 

I have a few ideas but would rather give you a definite answer:biggrin:

[RobArb]

PS, it looks like a Larix sp.

[Xerxses]

No larix, needles about 4 cm

 

iPhone pic... Sample is dry, will interview for more info!

[RobArb]

Larix kaempferi needles can be 2-5cm long, I did think it was Sciadopitys verticillata but needles aren't long enough and don't quite match

 

Could be a young Pinus pinea but i doubt it?

 

What was the bark like?

[sloth]

Go on then rob, easy one...

[RobArb]

Sorry only just seen this, us it Cupressus arizonica?
