Lived at this place for a couple years now, have successfully maintained the life of this tree until now. Not sure why it’s struggling so hard. It lives in the ground, no pot, and water it 1-2 times a week (2-4 in the summer). Also this is Houston, Tx. Gets direct sunlight for about 6ish hours/day.
Anyone know what kind it is, and maybe why it’s dying?

I don’t know what kind of tree this was and I don’t know why it died. Sending sympathy for your loss.
Hello!
It a type of cypress tree. If you go to r/Houston type cypress tree in the search and you will yield some results as to why this type does not do well in our environment.
Baby that’s dead dead
Probably dried out over the winter
It’s an evergreen and by the looks of it, it got winter burn. Winter burn is common in evergreen plants.
looks like blight to me
Looks like a juniper
It’s either a Spartan or Hollywood juniper. Looks like a bad case of Spider mites!
Based on the leaf, it looks like a cypress.I am sorry it has died .
