I'm not great on conifers. Is this some kind of taxodium? growing in suburban Dublin. Multiple trunks, untidy, asymmetrical habit young foliage last year's cone. That coin is about the same size as an American cent. |

| Maybe Taxodium. My first thought was Dawn Redwood (Metasequoia) - its very similar to Taxodium. It may be growing like that because the central leader was cut or damaged at some point. Neither tree is what I would consider a neat, conifer shape.

| Looks like Metasequoia glyptostroboides Gold Rush. Twigs opposite on the branch. https://www.google.com/search?...:  |

 Metasequoia fits the bill. |
