A deciduous forest contains mostly broad-leafed trees-- trees that shed their leaves every year. They are contrasted with evergreens like pine that are often conifers (cone bearing) and that have sharp, spindly dark green 'leaves' that survive throughout the year and last for several years. Examples are the forested areas throughout New England and elsewhere that have sometimes spectacular fall 'foliage', when the leaves lose their green color prior to falling.
