Do evergreen needles fall off from old age?

Yes Answer No, but I will explain. All green things have a growing season. That's why the corn in the field dies and the oak trees' leaves fall off.

The usual ideas about cold weather or shorter days are bogus. You can fool plants into lengthening their growing season, but not by much! So just the same as evergreens know when to shoot out new growth and when to drop pine cones, they shed needles too And I hope you didn't mean Christmas trees.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
