Greetings Bill,

Probably the easiest way to answer this question is to have you utilize the resources of the World Wide Web. Many websites contain information on native and non-native trees including bark, fruit, twig, and leaf pictures.

An excellent example of such a website is Virginia Tech:

Gymnosperms: http://www.cnr.vt.edu/dendro/dendrology/syllabus/biglist_framegymno.cfm
