Most conifers have needles instead of leaves. Some conifers have leaves.
The trees they grow from grow in two completely different places .
Most conifers have needles that serve the same purpose as leaves.
present day gymnosperms are divided into the four following phyla: 1-Cycadophyta: palm-like trees of tropics/subtropics 2-Ginkgophyta: only a single species: Ginkgo biloba 3-Coniferophyta: cone bearing trees, evergreens: pines, firs, spruce 4-Gnetophyta: consists of 3 genera: a. welwitschia: in African deserts with only 2 long strap-like leaves b. Ephedra: desert shrub, souce of alkaloid ephedrine - used to treat congestion of hay fever, asthma c. Gnetum: trees or vines with large leathery leaves
Evergreen, or coniferous.http://www.elmcare.com/trees/types_of_trees.htmTrees can also be divided into deciduous and coniferous categories.Deciduous trees are also known as broadleaf trees because the leaves are generally larger and wider than those of conifers. The larger leaf size means a greater surface area for photosynthesis, but it also mean the leaf is too fragile to withstand winter conditions. Therefore, most deciduous trees drop their leaves in autumn.Coniferous trees keep their leaves throughout the year, shedding only the oldest leaves. Usually these leaves are lower down on the tree and do not receive as much sunlight as newly developed leaves higher up. Some of the best-known members of the conifer family are pines, spruces, firs, and hemlocks. The cones of the conifers are its flowers.The coniferous trees mentioned above do not have leaves. Their foliage is needles. A sample of a tree that does not lose it's leaves in the fall is the Arbutus tree. This tree sheds it's bark which is used to make pharmaceuticals for the medical field.
Conifers are plants like pine trees etc.These trees grow to quite a large height so it depends on how close to your house it is. I would advise not to plant it within 5meters of your house
The leaves of conifers are called 'needles'
Conifers have leaves but not flowers. The leaves are called needles, they do not look like leaves from deciduous trees.
Yes, conifers have leaves. The definition of a conifer is : A cone bearing tree with tiny needlelike leaves.
No they have needles...they are not classified as leaves.
Conifers typically have green leaves all year. 12 months.
Needles.
12. Most conifers are evergreens.
Conifers are trees such as Pine and Spruce, with long and needle-like leaves.They keep their green leaves year round.
Conifers do not shed their leaves like deciduous trees do. Instead, they retain their foliage year-round, with some species shedding older needles gradually over time. This helps conifers survive harsh winters and dry conditions.
conifers
Most conifers have green leaves year-round, so they will have green leaves in all 12 months of the year.
Trees that do not drop their leaves in the autumn are called evergreens. Cone bearing trees are called conifers. All conifers are not evergreen and all evergreens are not conifers.
