Conifers with Scale-Like Leaves

Pyramid Shape Shaped like the traditional Christmas tree Examples: Norway spruce, balsam fir, Fraser fir Photo at right shows Norway spruce.

Conical Shape Branches droop rather that turning upward. Example: white spruce Photo at right shows white spruce

Columnar Shape Branches grow sharply upward forming a thick, but very narrow-looking tree. Example: Lombardy poplar. Photo at right shows Lombardy poplar.

Spreading Shape Long branches spread horizontally outward from their trunk. The trunk, however, grows upward to the top or nearly to the top of the tree. Examples: American sycamore, paper birch Photo shows American sycamore in winter.

Vase Shaped Branches have a more upward growth pattern with a rounded top. Example: Lombardy poplar. Photo at right shows Lombardy poplar.

Broad-Shaped Tree Branches spread out from a short trunk leaving a somewhat flat top. Example: black hickory Photo at right shows a boxelder tree.

Rounded Shape Tree Similar to a broad tree, but with thicker, tighter branching giving the tree a rounded shape and round top Example: sugar maple Photo at right shows a sugar maple.
