If you mean do the needles change color from green to red or brown with the fall, then no, their color does not change. However, in the spring time the new needles have a much lighter green color, which darkens as the year goes on and they are subjected to the cold of the winter.

Can tiger lillies grow under pine trees?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Probably not for two reasons: One, the soil under any conifer is quite acidic, possibly more than the daylilies like, and even more importantly, two: Daylilies need all the sun they can get - they won't get that under a pine tree, unless the bottommost branches are high off the ground, and the daylilies have southern exposure.

Can grass grow under a pine tree?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Eventually there will be no lawn under a pine unless you remove the bottom 2/5 to 1/3 branches on the pine to allow for more sunlight. Removing the limbs is half the effort. You will need to remove the fallen needles from the lawn. Needles left on the lawn will also shade out the turf. This is advisable only if the pine is taking up to much yard space either functionally or visually. It is best to leave the pine with all it branches to the ground, leave all the needles on the ground and buy more if you want to speed up the process of ridding the yard of left over lawn.

How does the pine tree survive in the winter?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Pines, like any other coniferous and deciduous tree, go into dormancy during the winter, storing all their nutrients within their trunks and roots. They keep their leaves (called needles) during the winter, unlike deciduous trees, because they don't have as large a surface area as leaves do that would make them freeze and die in very cold temperatures.

User Avatar

A pine tree loses its bark for many different reasons, not all of them bad. Most of the time, it is simply a case of the tree outgrowing its bark, and shedding it to make way for the trunk to enlarge.
