    Possibly Cedrus deodara Gold Cascade?

  • Yes that could be it, thank you.

  • Although the leaves are not as 'spikey' as shown on some of the pictures I've been looking at on the net.

    Could it be a dwarf Chamaecyparis?  I was looking at C.filifera aurea nana...

    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    I think if it's a Cedrus, it would have little bunches of "needles" - from your photo it looks more like flat, branched leaflets.  image

    Loads of different dwarf conifers though...

    Thanks for that, I think you are right, it is some form of Chamaecyparis as you say.

    Chamaecyparis obtusa Crippsii is very golden and quite droopy looking.
