BS...conifers must be hard to id. When you go on google and put the names in you get all different ones claiming to be the same plant! I shall have to invest in a good conifer id book! Any suggestions?

No, it's not th Crypto japonica 'Nana'....looking at it again, could be a Juniper, one of the communis varieties....if it's a bit prickly to touch, then it's definitely a Juniper

It's not prickly BS, it's quite a softie!

Ok Karen, still gonna stick with one of the dwarf Juniperus communis varieties, but can't be sure which one from this photo, needs to grow a bit and get some shape, then we might be able to pin it down correctly lol x
