Plants need to lose leaves in the fall because the leaves are very dry. In the winter, plants already have all their leaves lost in the fall, but they can't grow back because it is too cold. In the spring, it gets warmer so leaves can grow back. In the summer, a few leaves die because they are too hot and too dry.
