Deciduous trees lose their leaves at the end of their growing season, and this happens in late spring and early summer, usually in the first few weeks of summer.
The term for the loss of leaves is abscission, and the word “hardwood” means “to fall,” and it comes from Latin and means “to fall.”
Deciduous trees are also called deciduous trees, but they live in a variety of habitats, such as grassland, shrubs and even grassland. Evergreen trees are trees that do not lose their leaves, so they can survive for many years without leaves, even in winter.

Examples of Deciduous Trees Oak
The genus Quercus oak includes all trees and shrubs, but the more common oak species are black, English white, red and red. The species of Asian oak include black oak, white oak and white pine, as well as red oak from Asia and Africa.
Oak is often used in timber construction, furniture and floors, and acorns are the fruit of oak. In some species, the broad, flat leaves of the oak have lobes with toothed edges, but in all species, the wider, flatter leaves of the oak have a lobes with toothed edges.
Upright English Oak leaves Maple
The maple genus Acer has about 200 species of trees and shrubs, but the most common are red, sugar and silver, with a few other species in between.
Samara is a pair of winged seeds that fall with the characteristic propeller movement. Specialties that come from maple trees include maple syrup, sugar maple, maple bark and maple juice. Maple is used as an ornamental tree in areas where shade is desired, but offers a variety of other benefits, such as the ability to cover needles.
Acer saccharinum leaves Birch
The two Japanese species are the monarchy cherry and birch, and both have smooth white or black bark. They are used for wood and ornamental purposes, but are also often bent for the construction of houses and other buildings.
The leaves of the birch are ovoid or triangular, have toothed edges and turn yellow in autumn and green in winter. They have a thick, white or black bark, with a thin, dark brown bark at the top and a white edge attached to the bark.
Birch is often used for its bark, which is used in canoes, roofing shoes and in building, as well as as as a building material for roofers. Birch was often used in Europe as an ornamental tree for decorating houses, buildings and other buildings.
Yellow birch summer leaves How Deciduous Trees Lose Their Leaves
In autumn, temperate deciduous trees enter a phase of slow metabolic processes, in which they pass from summer to autumn.
Two plant hormones also involved in this abscess are auxin and ethylene, and where leaf and stalk meet, a chemical called abscisic acid is produced. This action has two effects: a rapid cell division that causes the stem to detach from the branch and the cells to form a layer that prevents nutrients and minerals from entering the leaf. It causes cells in this area to divide quickly and not grow, but not in other parts of the tree.
The colour that appears on the leaves when they fall in autumn is influenced by temperature, soil moisture and the amount of sunlight. The leaves of tropical, subtropical and deciduous trees fall in autumn, a mechanism that allows the tree to conserve water during the dry season.
Deciduous trees are temperate, but some trees at some latitudes are not, such as tropical tropical trees, tropical subtropical trees and tropical subtropical and temperate deciduous trees.
Deciduous forest fall Colors of Deciduous Tree Leaves in Fall
It is chlorophyll that gives the leaves their green color and is consumed during photosynthesis. deciduous trees are constantly replaced by them in the warmer months, and by the leaves of their parent trees in the colder months.
As temperatures fall, the production of chlorophyll slows down, and in some tree species this loss of chlorine leads to the disappearance of leaf colour. In some tree species, the loss of chlorogyll reveals other spectacular pigments hidden in the leaves, such as gold, silver, red, yellow, orange, green or blue.
The yellow, brown and orange colors we often see come from more than 600 types of carotenoid pigments. Anthocyanin pigment produces red and violet coloration, tannins are brown and anthocyanins produce yellows, oranges and greens.
Carotenoid pigments are always present, but with time abscesses begin and deciduous trees lose their leaves with a marked change in color.
