Evergreen trees, such as pine, spruce, and cedar, retain their needles year-round. This allows them to maintain their green color and photosynthesize during the winter months.
Evergreen trees, such as pine, spruce, and fir trees, retain their leaves or needles year-round. These trees do not shed all of their leaves at the same time, so they appear green throughout the seasons.
Evergreen trees, such as pine, spruce, and fir trees, retain their leaves throughout the year, shedding and regenerating them gradually. These trees are also known as coniferous trees because they bear cones.
