deciduous and coniferous

 Deciduous And Coniferous 

    Trees are a kind of plant. Two types of trees are deciduous trees. The leaves on deciduous trees fall off every year when the weather gets cold. Deciduous trees grow new leaves in the spring, when the weather gets warm again. Coniferous trees shed and replace their leaves throughout the year.

    Deciduous trees are flowering plants. They grow their seeds inside things like fruits and nuts. Oak, apple, and maple trees are deciduous trees. Coniferous trees do not have flowers. They grow seeds in cones. Pine, spruce, and fir trees are coniferous trees.

   Coniferous trees grow two types of cones. The small cones make pollen. The large cones can grow seeds. A coniferous tree gets pollinated when the wind blows pollen from the small cones to the large cones.

    The seeds inside the large cones ripen. Cones with ripe seeds fall to the ground. Then the seeds can germinate in the soil. If the seeds get the right amount of water, space, and sunlight, they grow into new trees. Later, the new trees will make their own large and small cones. When that happens, the life cycle of the evergreen trees will start again.
