Sprout (germination)

Once the seed has found the right conditions, it needs to secure itself. The first root breaks through the seed, anchoring it and taking in water for the developing plant. The next stage in germination is the emergence of the embryonic shoot.
The shoot pushes up through the soil, with the shoot leaves either poking above ground or rotting underneath as the rest of the shoot grows above.

Seedlings

A shoot becomes a seedling when it is above ground. This stage is when trees are most at risk from diseases and damage like deer grazing.

Sapling

A tree becomes a sapling when it is over 3ft tall. The length of the sapling stage depends on the tree species, but saplings have defining characteristics:
Flexible trunks
Smoother bark than mature trees
An inability to produce fruit or flowers.
Trees with really long life spans like yews and oaks are saplings for much longer than shorter-lived species like silver birch and wild cherry.

Mature tree

A tree becomes mature when it starts producing fruits or flowers. This is when the tree is at its most productive. How long it will stay productive depends on the species.
A typical English oak tree starts producing acorns at around 40 years old, peaking in productivity around 80-120 years. Oaks, in general, can be productive for 300 years then rest for 300 years before moving on in the life cycle. In contrast, rowan starts producing berries after around 15 years, and by 120 years or so it is already at the end of its life.
These fruits are dispersed and the life cycle repeats, but that’s not the end of a tree’s journey.

Ancient trees

The next stage of a tree’s life comes when it passes beyond maturity and is older than trees of the same species. It has become ancient. Depending on the species, a tree might be called ancient when it is only in its early hundreds, like rowan, or when it is thousands of years old, like yew. This means we can’t define ancient trees just by age. Instead, we look for key characteristics, like a small canopy and a wide trunk which is likely to be hollow, both of which show great age.

 

Decaying tree (snag)

A snag is a tree in the final stages of its life. It can be a dead standing tree or a dying tree. The tree’s life might be at an end, but its usefulness to wildlife is about to peak:
Dead wood provides specialist homes for insects as well as fungi.
Those insects are a food source for birds, bats and other small mammals.
These creatures take advantage of hollows or holes in the tree for shelter.
In turn, these smaller residents are food for larger mammals and birds of prey.
Dead and decaying trees are a vital part of a wood’s biodiversity. That’s why we leave plenty on our sites. Removing dead wood from woodland removes an important part of its biodiversity.

What are the stages of a tree?(what do you call a young tree)

What’s the difference between a sapling and a tree?(what do you call a young tree)

As nouns the difference between sapling and tree

is that sapling is a young tree, but bigger than a seedling while tree is a large plant, not exactly defined, but typically over four meters in height, a single trunk which grows in girth with age and branches (which also grow in circumference with age).

What is called seedling?(what do you call a young tree)

A seedling is a young sporophyte developing out of a plant embryo from a seed.
