Coniferous trees do not lose their needles because they are called "evergreen" trees which means the tree stays green for ever!
Non-coniferous is another term for a deciduous tree. Deciduous trees and shrubs shed their leaves each year in the fall. Coniferous trees are evergreen.
Coniferous means that trees or shrubs have cones or pointed needles. Deciduous means that trees shed their leaves annually. While some examples of coniferous trees are firs and spruce, deciduous trees are oak and maple.

No. Spruce is an evergreen. ------ WRONG!!!!!!! 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). Therefore spruce is not deciduous, it is coniferous
Deciduous, evergreen, coniferous.

Those are called artificial trees. Evergreen trees do not lose all their leaves at the same time, but DO lose leaves (needles).
The term that best describes a forest of evergreen trees is "coniferous." Coniferous forests are characterized by trees that retain their leaves year-round, typically in the form of needles, and include species such as pines, spruces, and firs. In contrast, "deciduous" refers to trees that shed their leaves annually. "Redwood" specifically refers to a type of coniferous tree found in certain regions.
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.
