It means …“changing of the colors”
Notes:
- Autumn turns into fall colors – the season when the maples, oaks, elms and other deciduous tree change their green leaf colors to orange, red, yellow and shades in between. You will come across specatular fall views of open fields, side roads, and backyards that are awash in fall colors that are just stunning. So Autumn is the season to plan road trips to where you can witness panaromic views of changing colors.
- Some of the best areas for fall folilage are in New England, along the Applachian mountain range and in any areas with an abundance of maples and oaks. New England is famous for its sugar mables that change into vibrant reds and deep oranges. So make your plans now to view the best areas for autumn colors.

Where to view and manage best fall colors and leaves dropping:
-
From Green to Fall Colors:
With each passing day past the Autumnal Equinox, the daylight hours becomes shorter – giving less sunshine that tree leaves need for photosynthesis – a process where plants use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water.
- With less sunshine, leaves begin to lose their “green” pigment and change into the wonderful colors we enjoy during the fall season. Where’s the best area to view fall colors? Probably around your current area – but, there are some noted regions that are spectacular:

-
The Leaves Do Drop:
It’s autumn! Fall means cooler weather, changing leaves and the end of major yard work until next spring. In the meantime, you may be busy tending to your lawn as the leaves fall. Rakes work great, but when it comes to getting the bulk of your work done, only a leaf blower can tackle the deep piles that seem to gather overnight.
