Do evergreens photosynthesize in winter?
)
January 30th, 2010
In places where it gets cold in winter, deciduous plants give up on photosynthesis, dump their leaves and go dormant. Evergreens retain their leaves. Do they still engage in photosynthesis? Obviously it is more difficult because there is less light and the water needed for photosynthesis is often frozen, but on a warm day can they still make use of the sunlight?
