Early second year cone of Knobcone Pine. (Pinus attenuata). Pine cones (herein referring only to the true female cones) have a peduncle (stem) which attaches to the branch (usually the upper branches) of the tree and this continues through the entire length of the cone as the rachis (axis).
Conifers, or cone-bearing trees, are mostly evergreen and have thin, spiky leaves called needles. Conifers include the pine, fir and spruce families. The cones of these trees vary widely in size, color and texture, but all carry and protect the tree's seeds until they are mature, at which point the cones release the seeds to the winds. Some deciduous trees also form hard, conical-shaped seed pods, but these are properly called catkins rather than cones.
