The western larch is a deciduous conifer, unique among conifers for its ability to lose its needles in the winter. This winter transformation is an adaptation to cold, harsh climates.

Needle Loss: In autumn, as temperatures drop and daylight decreases, the western larch’s needles turn a golden yellow and then fall off. This process is similar to the leaf shedding of deciduous broadleaf trees.
Dormancy: By shedding its needles, the western larch enters a state of dormancy, conserving energy and reducing water loss during the winter months when water is often frozen and unavailable.
Cold Hardiness: Needle loss also helps the western larch survive cold temperatures. Without needles, there is less surface area for frost damage and desiccation.
Renewed Growth: In the spring, as temperatures warm and daylight increases, the western larch breaks dormancy and grows a new set of needles. These needles are soft and green, and they photosynthesize to produce energy for the tree’s growth and reproduction.

This winter transformation allows the western larch to thrive in cold, snowy climates where other conifers might struggle. The green photos are from the spring of 2020
