Podocarpus henkelii

I just purchased this at a EOS sale at a nursery in east TX. At least that is what the tag said. I have my doubts, I think it is some kind of podocarp but not necessarily P. henkelii which I would not expect them to have. I does have a resiny scent to the foliage, the SO said it smells like a x-mas tree to him. It does seem vaguely similar to the P. matudae that I have which makes me think it is some kind of podocarp. It is in a far bigger container, 15gal, than I would like and I really haven't checked the roots yet so don't know how that will go. It was 40.00 so it is worth it even if it is not P. henkelli. It is about 6ft from the soil line and is a little pale I think but no brown or dropping needles even after 75mph in the back of the truck.
