What do you call plants whose tops die in the winter but roots live and re-sprout in the spring?
In gardening, annual plants die back at the end of the season and must be replanted the following year. Perennialsare herbaceous plants which return year after year, regrowing new foliage from live (but dormant over winter) roots.
Woody plants with such as shrubs and trees are not categorized as perennials despite living year after year because they do not die back to the ground at the end of the growing season, but rather grow new leaves on old branches the following spring. The exception to the above re woody plants is called the 'resurrection fern'.

Do plants keep food in themselves for winter?
Yes, some plants store food reserves in their roots, stems, or bulbs during the growing season to use during the winter months when photosynthesis may be limited. This stored food helps plants survive harsh winter conditions and ensures they have enough energy to produce new growth in the spring. Examples of plants that store food in this way include potatoes, dahlias, and tulips.

What is different in each plants environment between December and April?
Generally speaking, December through April means winter with cooler temperatures and declining day light for the majority of the country. Depending on the region, winter can also mean freezing temperatures, snow, and ice. During this time, many plants go dormant, storing energy and nutrients in their roots. Other plants, like evergreens, conduct photosynthesis at a reduced rate. When spring arrives, plants break dormancy and photosynthesis hastens with the onset of warmer temperatures and increased sun light.December is the time of winter season in Northern Hemisphere so plants adapt them for cessation of active growth. April is the spring season and these plants now resume active growth with new leaves and flowering.
