What is the difference between an evergreen and a deciduous tree?

Answer 1

An evergreen tree's leaves never die and a deciduous tree's leaves die during the winter and fall.

A deciduous tree drops its leaves in Autumn.

Answer 2

Evergreen trees retain their leaves throughout the year, shedding old leaves gradually rather than all at once. Deciduous trees lose their leaves each fall, typically in response to changing seasons. This is a key difference in their growth patterns.

Answer 3

Deciduous trees or shrubs loose their leaves, while evergreens do not.
