Wei Zi and Tabai

The difference between Sabina vulgaris and Taba is as follows:

1, the difference between leaves

Taper's branches are straight up and dense. The crown is mostly columnar or spire-shaped, and the leaves are mostly prickly and scaly. The young branches of Sabina vulgaris tend to extend obliquely upwards and are shaped like a tower crown. The branches and leaves under the old tree are tiled and shaped like a crown. There are two leaf types, one is thorn leaf and the other is scale leaf. When spiny leaves grow on young trees, old trees are all scales, and young trees have both spiny leaves and scales. In short, judging Sabina vulgaris or Taba mainly depends on whether there are few scales on the leaves or whether the columnar crown is obvious.

2, the difference between bark

Sabina vulgaris bark is gray, longitudinally split, split into strips, split into irregular slices and fall off; However, the bark of Tabai is brownish gray with cracks and loose branches. Sabina vulgaris has four pairs of sporocarps, and all the sporocarps are cracked after maturity, while Taba's sporocarps are larger and spherical. The branches of Sabina vulgaris are almost on the same plane, while the branches of Taba are evenly distributed in all directions.

In a word, Sabina vulgaris and Sabina vulgaris have their own characteristics, but they can't be ignored and irreplaceable in greening.
