Nice late season leaf colors

Post by redcrx »

I had to get this post in today because many of these will be gone tomorrow with the first frost of the season. These were all taken yesterday and today.

Wow, I was expecting to see shades of orange and golden yellows. Those look really dang good for this time of year! Most of mine are past their prime, with the fall colors even starting to fade now :(

Thanks for sharing those!

We didn't get frost last night so the fortunei types should hang around for a while longer.
Here are some more recent shots.
