Pine trees

Pine trees are evergreen conifers that produce needle-like leaves and bear cones containing seeds. They are hardy and adaptable, thriving in various climates from cold mountains to warm lowlands. Pines play a key role in ecosystems by providing habitat, food, and oxygen, while their wood is valuable for construction, paper, and resin products. They have a characteristic aroma from their needles and resin-rich bark, and their cones mature over time, dispersing seeds for reproduction. Pines contribute to the landscape’s beauty and ecological stability, making them an important and widespread tree species.
