Carried My Task

This is a common cone from a typical coniferous trees, also known as evergreens. In oppose to deciduous trees, coniferous trees have spiny leaves year-long and that contributes to their common name "evergreen".

Usually coniferous trees have cone like fruits that house their genetic materials (seeds). Initially the cone is closed and in protective form, but under ideal conditions it opens up and release the seeds to continue the progeny.

I took this shot in the middle of a very young tree. It seemed that this particular cone has done what it does best, to release it seeds in hope that some will eventually become trees.
