Why do trees shed their leaves for winter?
I’m not a botanist, but I love your question! It’s to give us folk’s who stay at home all day something to do when the sun isn’t strong enough to sit out sun bathing all day. Autumn (Fall) – Sweep up the leaves (over and over and over again) Winter – Clear the snow off the drive (over and over and over again) Spring – Clear the weeds off the garden (over and over and over again) Summer – Sit out in the shade of the leaf covered trees ignoring the grass growing to unreasonable heights. I’m trying to picture a tree that’s shivering in the cold of winter, wrap it’s leaf covered branches around it in an effort to keep warm (I’m laughing here! Thanks for that xx).
