Evergreens (Conifers) Deciduous Leaves are needles or scalelike Leaves stay on Tree year round Fruit is a cone Sap has “antifreeze” Leaves are flat with veins Leaves fall off tree in autumn Fruits vary

How to Identify Conifers Are leaves needle or scalelike? Are needles in a bundle or do they grow singly? How many needles are in a bundle? Do leaves fall off in autumn?

Scalelike Leaves Eastern red cedar Northern white cedar

Eastern White Pine Jack Pine Needles in Bundles

Single Needles Colorado blue spruce

Alternate Leaves Opposite Leaves Leaf Arrangement in Deciduous Trees Whorled Leaves

Trees with Opposite Leaves MAD Horse Buck (and Viburnum) Maple Ash Dogwood Horse Chestnut Buckeye Viburnum

Trees with Alternate Leaves Everything else… Oak Beech Hickory Aspen Elm Hackberry Etc….
