You have two native junipers, "the scaly one" is Juniperus horizontalis, "t= he spiny one" is Juniperus communis. See the NS Museum document for its range: https://ojs.library.dal.ca/NSM/a= rticle/view/4873/4390 Not often are you able to see both on the same walk, usually somewhere coas= tal in NS.

To me, the smaller one is clearly creeping juniper. The larger twig looks different, and further on the trail, there were many places where both forms were growing on the same plant. The scaly form was more frequent, the spiny form restricted to locations where the twig was less exposed (between other plants, off the barren granite). Any comments/info appreciated.
