According to the plumber augering my main line, tree roots can still grow in the winter. And our winters here are -30C. A gardening site says that tree roots can grow if the underground temperature is 40F, about +4C.

Deciduous trees are dormant in the winter. Conifir trees grow the most in the winter and tend to be semi-dormant in the summer. Winter is a time of year when trees don't have leaves. Trees need leaves to grow via photosynthesis, less sun in the winter and a lack of leaves means little to no photosynthesis depending on species of tree. Reduced or no photosynthesis means no new sugars are produced by the tree so no or little extra growth occurs

Yes, but in cold climates trees just hibernate for the winter so to speak until the ground warms up again.
