Needle-leaf trees, or conifers, have long, thin leaves that resemble needles. The leaves remain on the tree year-round and are replaced slowly and continuously rather than all at once. The smaller, tighter needles are more waterproof and wind tight than the larger, wider leaves found on broadleaf or deciduous trees.Since coniferous trees are found in cold regions, they are well adapted to the cold climate. Their leaves are conical in shape so that the snow slides off easily from the branches without causing any damage to them.
