There are three main types of trees.
The most numerous and widespread group is that of broad-leaved or broadleaf trees, which are often also deciduous.
Conifers are mostly evergreen.
While the last group is made up of palm trees, which practically do not exist in Aragon, they stand out for their characteristic crown.

Through a classification process, things, plants in this case, are ordered based on traits or characteristics that they have in common.
As far as the classification of plants is concerned, trees do not constitute a single group. Starting with the largest group, that of the vegetal kingdom or plants, these are divided into increasingly smaller categories.
| KINGDOM Plants | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| PHYLINE or TYPE Spermatophytes: plants that produce seeds. | |||
| CLASS Angiosperms: in Greek means "with seeds in the ovary" | |||
| ORDER Fagales: include birch, alder, oak, beech and chestnut | |||
| FAMILY Betula: includes birch and alder. | |||
| GENUS Betulae: includes birch and alder. | |||
| SPECIES Pendula: in Latin means pendant (reference to the hanging shoots). |
A tree species is a group of similar trees whose flowers can produce seeds through cross-pollination. Every tree species has a Latin name, composed of a generic name and a specific name. Thus, the Latin name of the common birch is Betula pendula.
