TREES

Evergreen trees hold on to their leaves and stay "green" throughout the year. They do shed their old leaves to grow new leaves, but they drop them gradually, not all at once. This also includes most, but not all, varieties of conifers. For more information on conifers and our conifer collection, lease visit our Conifer page.

Deciduous trees will lose their leaves during the colder winter months and grow new leaves in the spring. They often put on a vibrant autumn show as their leaves change colors before falling to the ground.
