pine boughs
Needle-covered tree limbs
Pine boughs are branches cut from pine trees, typically with needles still attached.
They appear most often in Christmas decorations—wreaths, garlands, and centerpieces—valued for their evergreen color and resinous scent: We draped pine boughs over the mantel.
The word bough itself is somewhat literary; in everyday speech, people often just say pine branches.
