Cone-bearers are the trees which are called coniferous trees or conifers.

Specifically, the term comes from the combination of the Latin noun conus ("cone") and the present infinitive ferre ("to bear"). A conifer is recognizable for its leaves in the form of needles or scales. Most conifers also may be called evergreens since - other than baldcypresses and tamaracks - they shed their foliage over the course of 2-3 years. Well-known examples of conifers range from cedars to cypresses, firs, hemlocks, junipers, kauris, larches, pines, redwoods, spruces and yews.
