Most of the plants loose excess waters through the stem or their leaves
The name is deciduous, shedding their leaves annually.
Plants loose more water than they absorb from the soil due to a process called transpiration. is the evaporation of water into the atmosphere from the leaves and stems of plants. Plants absorb water through their roots and this water can originate from deep in the soil. (For example, corn plants have roots that are 2.5 meters deep, while some desert plants have roots that extend 20 meters into the ground). Plants pump the water up from the soil to deliver nutrients to their leaves. This pumping is driven by the evaporation of water through small pores called stomates, which are found on the undersides of leaves. Transpiration accounts for approximately 10% of all evaporating water.Read more: Why_do_plants_loose_more_water_than_it_is_absorbing_from_the_soil

All trees loose their leaves. Some do so a little at a time and are called "evergreen trees." Other trees loose their leaves all at once, usually in the autumn,, so the loss is very noticeable. These are called deciduous trees.
