Tree ID #865161

Asked April 19, 2024, 4:30 PM EDT

Hi, I am trying to identify some baby trees that came up in my yard after a neighbor's tree was removed. I am thinking they are its babies. If they are natives, I want to put them on the native plant exchange website rather than letting them die. Attached are some pictures of the big tree (from Google maps from before it was removed) and then the little ones that are growing now. Please let me know what you think!

This appears to be a true cedar tree. Possibly a deodara cedar. Seedlings are hard to positively identify, which often means growing them on, as in pots, allowing the plant to get big enough to develop distinctive features.
This is helpful, thank you!
