Is your Norfolk Island Pine dead if top is frozen?
Not yet, but its chances of survival are not good.
Norfolk pines are not designed to live in areas where frost occurs. If the weather is cold enough to cause the top to freeze, the tree's prognosis for the long term is rather grim.

Why is my fresh cut Christmas tree sprouting new shoots all over the tree?
Cutting a tree stimulates the production of plant growth hormone. That can cause shoots on trees if they are kept watered and get enough sunlight.
This is in addition to the answer above, but our Christmas tree is doing this right now! I've never seen a cut tree do this. About a week ago I noticed what looked like tiny pine cones appearing all over it and a week later they are sprouting! We got it a month ago, have kept it watered & it is by large open windows during the day & bright lamps at night. I'm pretty amazed. Now I want to know how to keep the tree alive via getting some roots off some branches & growing in a pot in the same spot. Then eventually replanting as many as possible!
What are some adaptations of the gum tree?
Gum trees, or Eucalyptus trees have numerous adaptations to enable them to thrive in Australia. The trees have poisonous fibrous leaves to limit animals from eating them. Apart from koalas, Greater gliders and Ringtail possums, all of which can eat mature eucalyptus leaves, Australia's native animals can only eat the young shoots of eucalyptus trees.
Gum trees are specially adapted for Australia's bushfire-prone climate. They are known as 'sprouters', which are adult plants that can survive a fire and resprout from the roots or stems. They rely less on seed germination, which is fairly low anyway, than they do on sprouting to ensure continuation of the species. In addition, many eucalyptus species have lignotubers, which are specialised root/crown structures located beneath the soil surface, containing many food-storing cells and shoot-forming structures. Therefore, the lignotubers of eucalyptus trees protet young shoots and provide food for these shoots when they first emerge after a bushfire. Further, also seed germination is low, it is largely reliant on fire to stimulate it. Many types of eucalyptus trees have hard, woody capsules that protect the seeds during fire, but which open after fire, releasing their seeds.
The way gum trees grow is also an adaptation. Many species have wide, spreading canopies which redirect the limited rain that falls down the trunk to concentrate around the roots. The leaves of a eucalyptus tree hang down, rather than horizontally, minimising evaporation and hence water loss (transpiration), as they are not as exposed to sunlight. The leaves usually have equal numbers of stoma on each side, unlike trees which hold their leaves horizontally - they tend to have all or most of their stoma on the lower side. The leaves also tend to have a thick, waxy coating which also minimises water loss.

What month do you prune your fruit trees?
It would be early in Spring, before the tree buds out, April or May. Any time the tree is dormant, the leaves are off, you can trim it easily with little harm to the tree. If you must do it in summer, wait until after the tree has flowered.

What insect fertilizes the flowers that grow on cacao tree trunks?
The flowers of the cacao tree are not fertilized by bees like most flowers. These flowers are pollinated by gnats. It is this insect that carries the pollen from flower to flower which allows the cocoa pods to grow.
Opportunities for breeding, feeding, and sheltering are reasons why insects live in trees. Trees offer parts on which to feed as well as spaces on which to breed, feed, and lay eggs.
