Deciduous means the tree loses its leaves completely in either the cold season or the dry season. This is usually winter. In North America 'deciduous tree' commonly is a term used by people and garden centers for any broad-leaf tree (apples, elms, maples etc), because across most of the US and Canada all broad-leaf trees lose their leaves in autumn (fall). Most North Americans call conifers (plants that carry their seeds in cones and typically have needle-like leaves - pines, yews, cedars, etc) 'evergreens' because most of them keep their leaves all year round. However, some conifers also lose their leaves each year, like the larch and the pond cypress. These are 'deciduous conifers'.

In places like Australia most of the continent doesn't get very cold, so deciduous trees (trees that drop their leaves) are almost completely absent. Most of the trees in Australia, such as eucalyptus, are broad-leaf trees (so, have flowers not cones) but keep their leaves all year, so are 'evergreen'. A very small number of tropical eucalyptus species, however, are deciduous dropping their leaves for the dry season. So eucalyptus are mostly 'broad-leaf evergreen' trees.

These are also called tropical rain forests which receive heavy rainfall. 1. The trees shed their leaves at different times and thus they seem to be evergreen.
