Morning Conifer Crush- Carolina Hemlock


I fell for some small blue-green cones this morning, which reminded me a bit of certain rhodendron and azalea buds I've seen.



It's not me right? The young cone and the bud above do look alike somewhat although they are pointing in opposite directions.


The label (man do I love a tree that is sporting a label) said Carolina Hemlock '28, so I'm assuming this means the tree was planted in 1928 and is a North American native.
