 Deciduous Tree Basics

 

Paragraph:

      The word deciduous is most often used to describe trees and the nature that the leaves, needles and such fall off.  Most popularly would be the Maple or Oak tree, amoung alot of others.  As the seasons change from Spring to Fall to Winter, so do the leaves.  First starting as green then turning to various shades of yellows, reds and oranges.  Until they fall off towards the end of Autumn.  Keeping the beauty of radiant colors lighting up the horizon line and the ground like a cindering fire.
