The pine family, as we discuss it, is not all pines, in exactitude it includes many diverse trees that the botanist describes as conifers. These cone-bearing trees are nearly all evergreens that is, the foliage persists the year round, instead of being deciduous, as the leaf-dropping maples, oaks, birches, and the like are scientifically designated.
A purely American species, and one of as much economic importance as any leaf-dropping tree, is the sugar maple, known also as rock maple one designation because we can get sweetness from its sap, the other because of the hardness of its wood. The sugar maples of New England, to me, are more individual and almost more essentially beautiful than the famed elms.
