🌳 Tree Fact Tuesday! 🌳
Did you know that some trees can “sleep”? 😴🌳
Many tree species lower their branches and droop their leaves at night to conserve energy and water. As the sun rises, they slowly lift them back up again ready for the day ahead.
Scientists discovered this by using laser scans and found that some branches can move by as much as 10 centimetres overnight! 🤯
So next time you walk past a tree in the evening, it might just be settling down for the night. 🌙✨
