I have just one tree showing fall color right now, and it is stunning. I wanted to share it with you all. The color was maybe a bit better a few days ago, as it had more deep reds, but also a lot more green too. Now, that bright yellow has taken over!

Beautiful color! The cypress should start showing some before long.

Thanks for sharing.

Nice color, and nice tree! I tried sweet gums a couple of times, but the fungal issues here were too much for them. Do you know what kind of gum this is?
Thanks for posting!
