needle-like leaves
Evergreen tree foliage
Needle-like leaves are the thin, pointed foliage of conifers and some other plants—pines, spruces, firs, and junipers.
The narrow shape reduces water loss, helping these trees survive cold winters and dry conditions.
The forest floor was carpeted with fallen needle-like leaves.
