Firs do always shed about 50% of their leaves iin autumn, to cope with threatening winter conditions (high winds, heavy snow loading). I see our Thujas do it. It's how that lovely bouncy carpet arrives in pine forests' floors.
The difference between deciduous trees and fir trees is that deciduous trees lose their leaves while fir trees do not. Deciduous trees usually lose their leaves during winter, but some in the tropics lose their leaves during the dry season.
Coniferous (conifer) trees such as pines, spruces, cedars and fir trees do not loose their leaves (needles or scale like leaves). Think Christmas trees. Some conifers such as the Larch do lose their needles in winter. Trees that do not lose their leaves in winter are called evergreens.
because they dont realy have leaves and they look fury.
No, a fir tree is not deciduous; it is an evergreen conifer. Fir trees retain their needles throughout the year, allowing them to photosynthesize even in winter. Deciduous trees, on the other hand, shed their leaves in the fall.
Evergreens do not lose their leaves in the winter. Deciduous trees are the name given to those trees that lose their leaves in the winter. There is also a such thing as evergreen deciduous trees which have characteristics of evergreens besides the fact that they DO lose their leaves in the winter.
Evergreen trees keep their leaves in winter. These are pine trees, fir trees, redwoods, spruces, and the like. Also two kinds of oak trees keep their leaves in winter, live oaks and water oaks. Some species closely related to the oaks also do, camellias, azaleas, and rhododendron.
Some trees that remain green all winter in temperate climates include evergreen conifers such as pine, spruce, and fir trees. These trees have needle-like or scale-like leaves that help them retain their green color throughout the winter months. Deciduous trees that keep some or all of their leaves in winter, such as certain holly species, also remain green during this time.
Firs are evergreens, have needles, produce cones (like pinecones) for reproduction, and are soft woods. Oak trees shed their leaves in winter, have leaves to shed, produce nuts (acorns) for reproduction and are hard woods. The difference between hard woods and soft woods is in the trunk and where the dividing line between the heartwood and sapwood exists. Oak is much harder to drive a nail into or cut than a fir.
Conifers such as the western white pine may keep the same needles for as long as 4 years. Others, like the redwood, sequoia, spruce, hemlock and fir, will not drop their foliage when it turns cold. Different trees that have leaves also follow suit, maintaining their leaves despite the turning of the pages on the calendar. I hope this helps!
Evergreen trees keep their leaves the year round. Some evergreens are broadleaf trees, and some conifers. And likewise with deciduous trees. Teak trees lose their leaves in the dry season. So you see it is quite variable.
Pine trees are trees that don't lose their needles in winter and maple trees do.Maple trees don't have needles.
palm trees and hibiscus trees once the summer is over they just die because they are from worm countrys that do not have winter. If they where in there home they would stay alive for a very long time but here it is about two months.
