because a bird broke its wing and the spruce, pine, and juniper tree offered to help it heal until springtime. the frost king told the wind not to pluck their leaves, or needles. that is why :)))
Evergreen tree. In fact, all coniferous trees keep their leaves (which are in the form of needles) throughout the winter months, and all year around.
Yes. The leaves are called needles because of their long thin shape. They are evergreen trees.
There are two major types of trees: Deciduous and evergreens. Evergreens are trees, which keep their leaves all year long. Pine, cedar, and other coniferous (producing cones) trees are evergreens with needles instead of leaves. They are the most common evergreens in Maryland. Deciduous trees lose their leaves during the fall and grow them back in the spring.
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.
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.
Most deciduous trees do this. Some will hang on to their dead leaves through the winter and drop them in the spring. Deciduous trees are trees like oak and maple, leaf-bearing trees as opposed to evergreens.
Deciduous (broadleaf) trees drop their leaves in the Autumn (fall in the USA), spending winter with bare branches. Evergreen trees (cedars, pines and firs, etc) keep their leaves throughout the year, shedding needles and regrowing as needed. The Larch drops their needles in Autumn.
Evergreen trees keep their leaves/needles over the winter months. Deciduous trees lose their leaves during the winter months.
Evergreen trees retain their leaves through the winter.
Evergreens are specially adapted . A waxy coating of an evergreen's needles keep in moisture during the bitter cold.
Trees that do not lose their leaves in winter are called conifers or evergreens. Some common examples of conifers are as follows:CedarsFirsCypressesJunipersLarchesPinesHemlocksRedwoodsSprucesYews
Most conifers keep their leaves(needles) in winter.9 all evergreen trees keep their leaves throughout the year even in winters like pine trees for example
