A couple of weeks ago we had some fairly vigorous winds near Portland Oregon. During the cleanup, I picked up and photographed a couple of these “kernels” that blew down from the trees. We have large Doug Fir and Western Red Cedar on the property. Because of how they disbursed, I think they are from the Western Red Cedars.

For reference, I photographed these on a piece of paper towel. They’re tiny, a bit bigger than a piece of coarsely ground peppercorn.

There are millions on the ground and I’m still cleaning them up


Thoughts?

Those look like they're from your Cedar tree. Doug fir seeds look like just a flat brown seed.
