	Fir, Pine or Spruce - Which Do I Have?
		On pine trees, the needles are arranged in clusters, with 2, 3 or 5 needles per cluster; spruce and fir have their needles attached individually to the branches and branchlets.
		The needles on both spruce and fir trees are spirally arranged, but the branchlets on fir trees are flat on one side as compared to the rounded appearance of spruce tree branchlets.
		Most spruce and pine trees retain their cones for a few years; thus it is common to see new and old cones still attached to a tree.
