How do trees protect their buds in winter?

Trees survive winter using various techniques. However, the techniques they use to survive winter are different. * Deciduous trees. Deciduous tress are trees that lose their leaves during winter. Since food isn't in abundance in winter and photosynthesizing is virtually impossible, trees need to save food. Therefore, trees stop the flow of nutrients to their leaves. The leaves, subsequently, change color due to languishment and die off. * Coniferous trees. These trees do not lose their leaves during winter. Their leaves (pines and pine-like leaves like pinecones) are more durable, and lighter, and do not burden the tree as much as the leaves of deciduous trees do.
