**A large tree drinks about 100 gallons of water in a single day! WOW!!!
**Pine cones have genders. Male cones shed pollen and female cones have eggs. When the wind blows pollen into the female cone, the eggs become pollinated, creating seeds. Mature seeds fall to the ground, become planted, and the tree cycle begins again.
**Different parts of a tree grow at different times throughout the year. Typically, foliage growth happens in the spring, followed by trunk growth in the summer, and root growth in the fall and winter.
