Larix consists of coniferous trees that shed their leaves, characterized by a conical shape. In autumn, the soft, needle-like foliage displays notable color changes. The leaves are arranged in whorls on spur-like lateral branches and spiral around the younger shoots. Small, ovoid cones remain attached to the branches.
