Differences between Shimadzu and Juniper

1. Difference of blades

The leaves of the juniper are thorn-shaped, with three leaves arranged in cross whorls, linear-lanceolate, and gradually tapering into a horny sharp tip at the tip. The upper part is concave and has two stomatal bands with white powder, and the lower part has a distinct green midrib. The underside is convex, with fine longitudinal grooves along the midrib, and is blue-green in color. The leaves of juniper are strip-shaped and thorn-shaped, and their overall color is slightly lighter than the former, which is green.

2. Fruit Difference

The fruit of the juniper is nearly spherical, about 8-9 mm in diameter. The surface is covered with white powder, and the color turns black when mature. There are about 2-3 seeds. The fruit of juniper is broadly oval or nearly spherical, light reddish brown when ripe, with white powder on the surface or falling off completely, and there are usually three seeds, but rarely only one.
