How to use foliage in a sentence?

  1. William Keeton:

  4. William Keeton:

  5. Kaitlyn Weber:

    In terms of fall foliage, drought can cause the leaves to change colors earlier, but they may also die and fall off earlier, prolonged and more extreme drought can cause physical damage to trees such as root loss, slowed growth, and makes it harder for trees to protect themselves against pests and disease.
