Does a dead tree still draw water?

A tree consumes water in two ways, the most important is through transpiration when the tree has leaves. When water evaporates from the leaves a solid pillar of water is pulled upwards through branches stems and root. But in spring theres is also a root pressure that sucks water from the ground through osmosis. Inside the tree the salt concentration is higher than outside it, this causes water to travel through the cells into the tree. If the crown/stem is cut this ends up with a moist or wet stump but it will only continue for a few weeks and then the stump is drained and will slowly die, unless it sprouts new growth as Mark says.
