On a fir tree the needles grow along the twig on a pine they grow in clumps.
A spruce tree.
The difference between coniferous and non-coniferous wood lies in cone-bearing wood coming from trees that produce needles such as pine and spruce species. Non-coniferous wood comes from trees that produce leaves such as maple, oak and apple.
Spruce (Picea) is a genus of around 35 conifers from the Pinaceae family. Conifers are evergreen and their leaves are called needles.
In my opinion, a Blue Spruce.
Fir, spruce, hemlock, and other coniferous trees all have thick, waxy needles that prevent water from evaporating
Yes a spruce tree is coniferous, as are pines and firs. The way to determine if a tree is coniferous by whether or not it has needles instead of leaves and if it produces cones.
If you're talking about true trees (not like bamboo, which is a common misnomer) there are three types. Coniferous trees (also evergreen, etc.) have long thin leaves, that are commonly referenced as needles. Examples: Lodgepole pine, white spruce, etc. Also, the difference between pine and spruce is pine needles come off in pairs (P in pair and pine). Spruce needles come off in singles (same memory principle as pine; spruce and single).The next type is deciduis (not sure on spelling(SORRY)) which sheds its broad leafy leaves in fall. Examples:Aspen, willow, etc.Finally, the tamarack. Yes, ah, the tamarack. This is a weird combination of the afore mentioned types. I can't exactly give you a definite answer on this definition.I forget. Oops!Thank's Mr. Z for teaching me this stuff.

Tea made from spruce tree needles. Spruce tea contains roughly eight times the amount of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) than in orange juice. This quality makes the tea favorable in a survival situation and in the treatment of scurvy.
Uh...... I think it's opposite......... Something else if your wondering......... THE NEEDLES HURT LIKE MAD
Maple syrup, poutine (a Canadian dish from Quebec, made with french fries, topped with brown gravy and curd cheese), and spruce beer (beer flavored with the buds, needles, or essence of spruce trees)
