While at our local Flower Gardens the other day I noticed this ball-like growth on what appears to be an Evergreen tree. Don't recall ever seeing such a thing. Do you know what it is? The pattern on it looked like Alien writing :)

Art Pear, I think you've hit the nail on the head. I just Googled 'juniper berry', and although they don't look exactly like my post, they're similar enough to explain that's what they are. Thank you.
