Why Do Trees Shred Their Leaves In Winter?🌴🌲🌿🍂❄️❄️ @MalachiMRowe1 #tree #vlog #usa

In this vlog, I will share with you why trees shred their leaves in winter. I will also show you how these trees look afterward.
Let's go!!

To go along with this change in color, trees prepare to shed leaves by growing a layer of cells between the leaf stem and the tree branch known as an abscission layer. This layer stops the transport of nutrients and water to the leaf and becomes the main physical reason trees lose their leaves. The abscission layer also helps protect this sensitive area of the plant from winter cold and dryness.

The main reason for leaf drop on most trees is that, come winter, it gets pretty cold and dry in our part of the world. Rather than expend energy to protect these fragile organs, trees shed leaves to conserve resources.
