Notes:
Here are more pics, to include foliage and the main tree trunk. I still think it’s a cypress, maybe a lemon cypress or Wilma Monterey Cypress? It doesn’t have a scent that I can detect when foliage is crushed though, to any input or feedback anyone can provide would be much appreciated.

Thank you for these helpful pics. This plant is lack of the lemony aroma, the branches are more lax not stiff as those of in the lemon cypress. To my eyes the trunk looks very similar to those of Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) or one of its hybrids? It’s is in the cypress family. I suggest best you contact the nursery that specializes in conifers from one of the included links for the correct cultivar, or the correct genus if this isn’t Cryptomeria japonica. Check out some varieties in the group in these included links. Best wishes!
