I just realized that we really don't have any specific name for different types/shapes of leaves. We just call them leaf/leaves of + name of plant.

I'm just fascinated how it still looks the way it was when I first took it home. We don't have any of these kind of trees in our area. Mostly the leaves that I see decays after a few days.

Ok sorry, in my native language every leaf is a leaf when translated to English.

That is very interesting! And that is correct, yes I live in a tropical place and the leaves here dry up after a few days and they'll decay after a couple of weeks. And we call this whole branch a leaf lol didn't realize one needle is already a leaf
I took this branch home when we were hiking because it reminds me of Harry's broomstick (doesn't look like it now) and just left it on my bookshelf. I rarely touch it except when I'm cleaning.
