Are they bald because of their advanced age?
Although many conifers are evergreen, bald cypress trees are deciduous conifers that shed their needlelike leaves in the fall. In fact, they get the name bald cypress because they drop their leaves so early in the season. Their fall colors are tan, cinnamon, and fiery orange.
