Deciduous trees are trees that lose their leaves in the fall. They grow new leaves in the spring.
The deciduous plants are a vital part of the ecosystem.
There are only two different forms of the word "deciduous":
Adjective: deciduous.
Noun: deciduousness.
The word "deciduous" comes from the Latin word "decidere", which means "to fall down". This is because deciduous trees shed their leaves in the fall, when the weather gets colder.
