Evergreens may or may not bear cones so they may or may not be conifers. But they never are deciduous trees. Evergreens drop and regrow their foliage in the course of more than a year whereas deciduous trees lose their leaves in less than a year.

There are two major types of trees: Deciduous and evergreens. Evergreens are trees, which keep their leaves all year long.

Deciduous trees lose their leaves during the fall and grow them back in the spring.

What is the difference between a deciduous tree and coniferous tree?

Coniferous trees bear cones as their seed pods. Softwood comes from Coniferous trees and hardwood comes from Deciduous trees. Coniferous trees have needles, deciduous trees have leaves. Coniferous trees never completely shed their needles, while deciduous trees shed their leaves in autumn for the winter (and grow new ones in the spring). Coniferous trees stay green all year round, also known as evergreens.


Are yew trees deciduous?

No. Yew trees are coniferous. Coniferous trees have small, waxy and usually narrow leaves (needles or flat scales). 'Coniferous' means that it is a cone-bearing tree. The most common conifers are spruces, pines and firs. Alternative names used for coniferous trees are evergreens, softwoods and (appropriately enough) conifers. However, the name evergreen is not really a good synonym. Laurel, acacia and eucalyptus are also evergreens, and although not deciduous, they are not cone-bearing trees (they also definitely have leaves rather than needles).
