I desire to prune the conifer shown in the attached picture. Being uneducated on this topic, will someone tell be whether this is a Junifer or a Taxus Yew conifer? I live in zone 5b. Can I prune the shrub now or should I wait till fall, winter, early spring? Thanks.
That's a yew Taxus. Juniper has shorter leaves (or often, scale leaves). Yep, it can be pruned now, though it doesn't look necessary to me.

Thanks Resin for your help. Much appreciated.
