What kind of tree is this? In Eastern US, I think it’s “Eastern red cedar” but want to ask around so I know for sure. Found it in a corner of the yard, transplanted it and gave it more water, now it’s getting a green color towards the bottom so it might’ve been dry.
It looks like an Eastern Red/common juniper. It’s doable but also takes lot of patience. They take a long time to rehabilitate.

1 like Both but maybe in the following season will you see better results with the foliage. Try not to prune back too much just the obvious crispy ones,
2 likes So I had to circle back around to this. I was trying to answer you earlier while grooming my dog. After that I was encouraged by your post to go prune the winter damage off my juniper. I have a bunch to work on 😆 Anyway, I’m interested to see how it goes for you. Good luck with your tree and I’m sure in time you’ll have a nice specimen.
Thank you!
