These trees look like Coast Redwoods (Sequoia semperviren) to me.

Thank you! What are your thoughts about combining pine type trees with succulents. My designer friend suggests palms, but I am partial to Christmas trees. I'm sure this sounds crazy, what do you think?

Try posting this as a new question. You are more likely to get some great responses that way. I'm interested to hear what others say too!

Thank you, I will.
