What kind of plants are in the Temperate Deciduous Forest?
The plants of this biome must be very well adapted to survive in these conditions. For example, trees like the beech, white spruce, and the elm have leaves that absorb water and sunlight. This way, the soaring branches do more than just provide shade for other creatures of this biome, they also provide nutrients necessary for the tree to live. The other adaptation that these trees have is that they shed their leaves in the winter. By shedding their leaves, they cannot transpire, hence containing its water for the winter.
