The flaky brown twirlies that drop from oak trees are likely the fruiting bodies of oak galls, which are abnormal growths caused by various insects, particularly gall wasps. These galls can appear as small, round, or elongated structures that may twist or curl, resembling twirlies. They serve as a protective environment for the larvae and can vary in appearance depending on the species of wasp and the specific type of gall. As they mature, these galls eventually dry out and fall from the tree.
Trees drop sap when they are wounded or damaged, such as from pruning cuts, insect feeding, or other injuries. The sap may also flow naturally during specific seasons, triggered by temperature changes or growth patterns.
All Trees need to drop seeds because it needs to reproduce, if I couldn't reproduce then there wouldn't be one of those trees in the first place.
why does eugenia trees drop lots of leaves
Yes :)
Trees that do not drop their leaves in the autumn are called evergreens. Cone bearing trees are called conifers. All conifers are not evergreen and all evergreens are not conifers.
Yes, they will drop their leaves anyway.
yes they do.
deciduous trees
Most deciduous trees lose their leaves in Autumn . . . trees like maples, linden trees, elm trees; however, oddly enough, many oak trees do not lose their leaves in Autumn. The leaves turn colors, and then die and turn brown. The dead leaves take their time to drop off. In my area, some oaks still have their dead leaves as late as early Spring.
Actually the leaves on some trees drop everywhere in fall (not just in the eastern US) and the leaves on other trees never drop.The trees that drop their leaves in fall are called deciduous and the trees that never drop their leaves are called evergreen.The reason for the phenomenon you are describing is that in the eastern US forests have many more deciduous trees than evergreen trees, while in the western US forests have many more evergreen trees than deciduous trees. But forests on both sides of the US always have some of both types.Deciduous trees drop their leaves in fall mostly as a way to minimize water loss in winter to the cold dry air. Evergreens have an entirely different means of coping with cold dry air in winter.
