Some Fall colors for Southern/CA/AZ/warmer smokers

[fire it up]

Was outside doing a few things today and noticed how many of the trees leaves are changing color already.
There are lots of smokers on here in warmer climates who never get to see things like this so I thought it would be nice to post a few Fall time pics for my Brother and Sister smokers out there who don't get to view the leaves changing as the temperatures outsie cool, though they don't have to worry about raking all those friggin things up eaither.








Nasturtiums are more cold tolerant than I though, this one is used in companion planting and is a trap crop for an apple tree (a crooked apple tree which I'll be transplanting soon.

Sweet.I keep garden notes last few decades and we are 2 weeks ahead in color.Time to start vaccum/shredding after this rain.


Man,all the rain here/there has made spectacular colors.I may head up to skyline drive for some sight-seeing in mountains...

We have colors like those here in the Phoenix metro area. We just have to go to an art supply store to find them. As far as I know, foliage only comes in two colors, green and dead.

Looks nice. We didn't get much of a fall here at all. I've got red maples that turn bright red in the fall. I raked the front yard today since they've already dropped 90% of their leaves.
