pine

Conifer with cones

Pine is an evergreen conifer with needle-like leaves and woody cones, valued for timber and resin.

The wood itself is also pine: pine furniture, pine floors.

To pine is to yearn or waste away from longing: She pined for her homeland.

Someone pining away suffers visibly from grief or unfulfilled desire.
