because if they had a few giant leaves they would die too quickly.The reason they would is because in the fall the leaves wilt and drop off the tree, and the only thing that can feed the tree is it's leaves. And since there would be only a few leaves, the tree would die too quickly before it can grow more.That's why they have many small leaves instead.
The small green 'leaves' are not leaves but the sepals that photosynthesize to provide food to the flower. They also act as a support to the flower.
Small leaves have less stomata which means that is less water that is taken from the leaf (transpiration).
During the research I did on gorse I found that most sources said up to 40 years in the soil and they can still germinate. However, in England they had cobblestone roads and then 100 years later when London was bombed gorse seeds started growing where the cobble road had been. So I suppose this shows that a hundred possibly even hundreds of years!
It is a bush with green stems, small green thorny leaves and many small, bright yellow flowers which last for a long time, especially in spring-time.
