Juniperus oxycedrus, vernacularly called Cade, cade juniper, prickly juniper, prickly cedar, or sharp cedar, is a species of juniper, native across the Mediterranean region, growing on a variety of rocky sites from sea level. The specific name oxycedrus means sharp cedar and this species may have been the original cedar or cedrus of the ancient Greeks. According to a study it could be Juniperus deltoides the Eastern prickly juniper. Hortiatis Mountain, Greece on January 2024 (Photo by Nicolas Economou/NurPhoto)
