What is a suffix for deciduous?

There isn't a common, widely used suffix specifically for "deciduous".

Here's why:

* Deciduous is already a complete word describing a type of plant or tree that loses its leaves seasonally.

* Suffixes are word parts added to the end of a word to modify its meaning.

Instead of a suffix, you might use related words or phrases to describe the characteristic of being deciduous:

* Deciduous forest

* Deciduous tree

* Deciduous foliage

* Deciduous plants

* Deciduous habit

If you're looking to modify the meaning of "deciduous", you'd likely need to use a different word altogether. For example, you could say "semi-deciduous" or "evergreen" to describe a plant that keeps some or all of its leaves year-round.
