Conifer seeds are produced in tiny scale-like things called seed cones or ovulate cones. These are completely different from the yellow, wormlike, pollen-producing cones you shook next to your car. At pollination time, seed cones are so small and inconspicuous that most people never notice them.
Conifers are a group of trees and shrubs that produce cones. The cones carry their seeds. Most conifers are evergreens, or trees that keep their leaves year-round. Their thin leaves are usually called needles. There are more than 550 types of conifer.
