In this regard, what is special about evergreen trees?

Evergreen trees are very different from other trees. These trees have leaves throughout the year and they always remain green. They include conifers and angiosperms such as hemlock, eucalyptus, and cycads trees. There is no seasonal leaf shedding but that does not mean they never shed their foliage.

Subsequently, question is, where do you find evergreen trees? Evergreen trees can be found on every continent except Antarctica. Unlike deciduous trees that shed their foliage during winter, evergreen trees keep their leaves year-round. Thousands of species are considered evergreens, including conifers, palm trees and most trees found in the rainforest.

Likewise, people ask, what are non evergreen trees called?

Another common name for conifers is evergreens, although not all evergreens are conifers because some tropical trees and shrubs do not change with the seasons. There are about 20 species of trees that straddle both worlds and are dubbed deciduous conifers. These trees form cones and sprout needles like conifer trees.
