Description

The illustration shows a cross-section of five needles of a pine tree (Pinus L.), a species of tree from the pine family (Pinaceae Lindl.). Pines are evergreen plants, characterized by a wide tolerance range for environmental conditions and temperatures. They mainly grow in the temperate climate zone of the Northern Hemisphere, although some species also grow in warmer zones, usually in the mountains. Seeds mature in hard, woody cones. Pines are an important source of timber, resin, essential oils, and edible seeds. Some species are also used as ornamental plants and certain types and varieties are popular. They have naturally become part of the folklore, culture, and art of many societies. In their natural state, pines mainly grow in the temperate climate zone of the Northern Hemisphere but have also been introduced to subtropical and temperate regions of the Southern Hemisphere. Some species have become invasive and pose a threat to native flora.
