APHOTOFLORA

An online educational resource and botanical image library dedicated to
the flora; wildflowers, trees, shrubs, ferns, liverworts and mosses, found in
South-West England, mostly around Devon and Cornwall, by David Fenwick.

A group of cone bearing largely evergreen trees and shrubs posessing needle or scale-like leaves. There are very few native coniferales in the UK so most species included in this section will be alien species that would have been imported for amenity value or commercial use in forestry.
