What is their differences?
How to recognize their types?
What Is a Plant
An herbaceous plant has a fleshy stem that is usually soft and supple. Annual plants only live one season, while perennial plants live two or more years
What Is a Tree
A tree is a perennial with an upright woody trunk. Mature limbs are woody and stiffer than herbaceous plants
Types
By definition, trees are perennials, meaning that they live for more than two years, in contrast to annuals or biannuals.
They also have woody stems and secondary branches that are off of the ground and grow from the main trunk.
The structural support provided by the woody stem enables trees to attain greater heights than most other plants.
According to the field guide "Trees," a tree is a plant that will grow to least 17 feet in height, while a shrub is smaller and has stems that grow from its base, in contrast to the branches of a tree, which protrude from the tree's main stem.
