Cedrus deodara (Deodar Cedar, Himalayan Cedar, or Deodar; Hindi, Sanskrit: देवदार devadāru; Chinese: 雪松 xue song) is a species of cedar trees that live in the western Himalayas and in eastern Afghanistan, northern Pakistan, north-central India (Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand states), Kashmir, southwesternmost Tibet and western Nepal, and live in places at 1500-3200 m above sea level. It is a large evergreen coniferous tree reaching 40-50 m tall, exceptionally 60 m, with a trunk up to 3m thick. It has a cone-shaped crown with level branches and drooping branchlets.
The leaves are needle-like, mostly 2.5-5 cm long, occasionally up to 7 cm long, very thin (1 mm thick), borne singly on long shoots, and in dense clusters of 20-30 on short shoots; their colours range from bright green to glaucous blue-green in colour. The female cones are barrel-shaped, 7-13 cm long and 5-9 cm broad, and break when up mature (in 12 months) to release the winged seeds. The male cones are 4-6 cm long, and shed their pollen in autumn.

Olive-National Tree Of Albania,Greece,Italy,Palestine,Portugal

Picture
The Olive (Olea europaea)(Urdu:زیتون), is a species of a small tree in the family Oleaceae, native to the coastal areas of the eastern Mediterranean Basin (The adjoining coastal areas of southeastern Europe, western Asia and northern Africa) as well as northern Iran at the south end of the Caspian Sea. Its fruit, also called the olive, is of major agricultural importance in the Mediterranean region as the source of olive oil. The tree and its fruit give its name to the plant family, which also includes species such as lilacs, jasmine, Forsythia and the true ash trees (Fraxinus). The word derives from Latin "Oliva" which in turn comes from the Greek ἐλαία (elaia) ultimately from Mycenaean Greek e-ra-wa ("elaiva"), attested in Linear B syllabic script.[The word 'oil' in multiple languages ultimately derives from the name of this tree and its fruit.

Monkey-puzzle Tree-National Tree Of Chile

Picture
Araucaria araucana (Popularly called The Monkey-puzzle Tree) is an evergreen tree growing to 40 metres (130 ft) tall with a 2 metres (7 ft) trunk diameter. The tree is native to south-central Chile and west central Argentina. Araucaria araucana is the hardiest species in the conifer genus Araucaria. Because of the species's great age it is sometimes described as a living fossil.
The leaves are thick, tough and scale-like, triangular, 3–4 cm long, 1–3 cm broad at the base, and with sharp edges and tip. They persist for 10–15 years or more, so cover most of the tree except for the older branches.
It is usually dioecious, with the male and female cones on separate trees, though occasional individuals bear cones of both sexes. The male (pollen) cones are oblong and cucumber-shaped, 4 cm long at first, expanding to 8–12 cm long by 5–6 cm broad at pollen release. The tree is wind pollinated. The female (seed) cones, which mature in autumn about 18 months after pollination, are globose, large, 12–20 cm diameter, and hold about 200 seeds. The cones disintegrate at maturity to release the 3–4 cm long nut-like seeds, which are then dispersed by jays and squirrels.


Wax Palm Tree-National Tree Of Colombia

Oak Tree-National Tree Of Germany,Moldova,Romania,Serbia,U.S.A,Second National Tree Of Italy

Picture
The Oak Tree (Quercus) is a kind of hardwood forest tree. Oak trees come in many different kinds of species, but all of them have large seeds called acorns. There are over 300 varieties over oak trees.
Oak trees grow all over many parts of Europe and North America. Many people who own wooded land in these parts of the world are proud of their oak trees. Oak is a climax vegetation in much of the Northern Hemisphere. What that means is, left untouched by humans, it would be the dominant tree. Much of England was covered by oak forests before modern farming took over the land. The last extensive oak woodlands were cut down to build ships for the Royal Navy in the 18th century.
Some kinds of oak wood are very hard. A lot of furniture was made from oak wood, but the wood is now scarce and expensive. Much cheaper are softwoods like pine.
Most oak trees lose all of their leaves in autumn. A special kind of oak tree, the "live oak", grows in the American South. It is called the "live oak" because it keeps many of its leaves over the winter.
Oak trees can live up to 1000 years. 

Indian Banyan-National Tree Of India

Pine-National Tree Of South Korea,Ukraine

Picture
Pines (Urdu:صنوبر) are a family of conifers. It includes many well-known conifers such as cedars, firs, hemlocks, larches, pines and spruces. It is the largest living conifer family with between 220–250 species in 11 genera, and the second largest in geographical range, found in most of the Northern Hemisphere. Major centres of diversity are found in the mountains of southwest China, Mexico, central Japan and California.
Pine is a genus in the Pinaceae family of the conifer division (Pinophyta). The wood that comes from it is also called pine. Pine is a softwood, with many uses. It is often used in furniture. This is because of its natural durability, and it is less expensive than hardwoods. All softwoods take up to 10–20 years to grow, which quicker than deciduous (hardwood) trees which take up to 100 years to grow.
Pines are found in almost the entire Northern Hemisphere. In North America, they are found from the southern part of Arctic to Nicaragua and Hispaniola. In Europe, they are found from Portugal and Scotland to Russia and in Asia, they are found from Russia to Japan and Philippines. They are also found in the Himalayas and some northern parts of Africa. They are also found in the North of Majorca (Mallorca) on the rugged mountains. Pines are trees that are wideley spread around the world.

The Date Palm-National Tree Of Saudi Arabia

Picture
The Date Palm (Phoenix dactylifera) is a palm in the genus Phoenix, cultivated for its edible sweet fruit. Although its place of origin is unknown because of long cultivation, it probably originated from lands around the Persian Gulf.It is a medium-sized plant, 15–25 m tall, growing singly or forming a clump with several stems from a single root system. The leaves are 3–5 m long, with spines on the petiole, and pinnate, with about 150 leaflets; the leaflets are 30 cm long and 2 cm wide. The full span of the crown ranges from 6 to 10 m.
Dates have been a staple food of the Middle East for thousands of years. They are believed to have originated around the Persian Gulf, and have been cultivated since ancient times from Mesopotamia to prehistoric Egypt, possibly as early as 4000 BCE. The Ancient Egyptians used the fruits to be made into date wine, and ate them at harvest. There is archaeological evidence of date cultivation in eastern Arabia in 6000 BCE. (Alvarez-Mon 2006).
In later times, Arabs spread dates around South and South West Asia, northern Africa, and Spain and Italy. Dates were introduced into Mexico and California by the Spaniards by 1765, around Mission San Ignacio.

Royal Oak-National Tree Of United Kingdom

Picture
Quercus robur (Sometimes considered Q. pedunculata or "Q. robur") is commonly known as the Pedunculate Oak or Royal Oak or English oak. It is native to most of Europe, and to Anatolia to the Caucasus, and also to parts of North Africa.
Q. robur is a large deciduous tree 25–35 m tall (exceptionally to 50 m), with lobed and nearly sessile (very short-stalked) leaves 7–14 cm long. Flowering takes place in mid spring, and their fruit, called acorns, ripen by the following autumn. The acorns are 2–2.5 cm long, pedunculate (having a peduncle or acorn-stalk, 3–7 cm long) with one to four acorns on each peduncle.
It is a long-lived tree, with a large widespreading crown of rugged branches. While it may naturally live to an age of a few centuries, many of the oldest trees are pollarded or coppiced, both pruning techniques that extend the tree's potential lifespan, if not its health. 

Araguaney-National Tree Of Venezuela

Picture
Tabebuia chrysantha (Araguaney or Yellow Ipe), known as cañaguate in northern Colombia, as tajibo in Bolivia, and as ipê-amarelo in Brazil, is a native tree of the intertropical broadleaf deciduous forests of South America above the Tropic of Capricorn. On May 29, 1948, Tabebuia chrysantha was declared National Tree of Venezuela since being an emblematic native species of extraordinary beauty. Its deep yellow resembles the one on the Venezuelan flag. It is one of about 100 species of Tabebuia.
It is a rustic decidious tree that defies hard, dry or poor soils. Therefore its roots require well drained terrain. Its height ranges 6 to 12m. Leaves are opposite and petiolate, elliptic and lanceolate, with pinnate venation. Flowers are large, tubular shaped, with broadening corolla of deep yellow colour, about 2 inches long; they come out (February to April) before the tree has grown back any leaves. The fruit consists of dehiscent capsule often matured by the end of dry season. It is a slow growing, but long lasting, tree.
As said, flowering and fruiting take place in dry season, from February to April, this way the seeds can take advantage of early rains. If raining season is delayed, the araguaney may flower and fruit, mildly, a second time. It is a highly efficient moisture manager. As happens with mango, the araguaney biological functions requiring most water take place precisely during dry season.
