evergreen?
Those are called artificial trees. Evergreen trees do not lose all their leaves at the same time, but DO lose leaves (needles).
Pine trees are considered an evergreen. They shed needles like other trees lose their leaves, but never all of them and only after the second growing year. Hence the name evergreen.
Coniferous trees do not lose their needles because they are called "evergreen" trees which means the tree stays green for ever!
Deciduous trees are trees that lose their leaves. Trees that don't lose their leaves are "Evergreens". Evergreen trees have needles, instead of flat leaves, to survive winter hardship. Needles cut evaporation so trees can save water - dear in the winter. Not all trees that bear needles are evergreen, for example the larch drops it's needles in the Autumn.

No, pine trees do not have leaves. They have pine needles that have a waxy coat on them. People refer to them as pine leaves sometimes, but that isn't what they are.
Pine trees are green in winter because they are evergreen and do not lose their needles.
Coniferous (conifer) trees such as pines, spruces, cedars and fir trees do not loose their leaves (needles or scale like leaves). Think Christmas trees. Some conifers such as the Larch do lose their needles in winter. Trees that do not lose their leaves in winter are called evergreens.
Evergreens do not lose their leaves in the winter. Deciduous trees are the name given to those trees that lose their leaves in the winter. There is also a such thing as evergreen deciduous trees which have characteristics of evergreens besides the fact that they DO lose their leaves in the winter.
Deciduous trees fall in the Fall. The trees lose their color and lose their leaves. That's why there are many trees that are bare in the Fall.
The "needles" on a pine tree or other conifer are the plant's leaves, where photosynthesis takes place. The needles are long and slender because of the environment of the trees. Needles lose less water and heat than typical leaves.
