Not yet in Boston actually. It stayed pretty warm until about 2 weeks ago. Most of the trees around here are still green (with a couple of yellowish highlights)

We've still got mostly green with a little brown. I'll take a pic of the park when it turns, though. Lots of maples and oaks!

It's one of them. We tend to get orange and brown up here.

We get brown, too.  And a sickly, washed out green.

The only orange is on dead suguaros.

I just spent about six minutes looking for a picture of a poop which contains all the beautiful colors of autumn.

I only succeeded in grossing myself out.

I have failed you, PD.

We don't really have fall colors here. Sometimes you'll spot an errant ginkgo or maple in someone's yard, but that's it.

On the other hand, there are silk floss trees that bloom in autumn that are really beautiful:

Does anyone else have those trees? Or is that only a subtropical thing? I also like them because their trunks are green and spiky.

We get a lot of your crazy Australian plants (my neighbors have kangaroo paws and an ugly bottle brush tree), but no silk floss. I want one now, though.

The maple and crabapple trees turn beautiful colors, and a few other trees turn yellow and loose their leaves, but that's really it. Everything else stays green, all year round.

Where do you live? We have all the Australian imports too, most notably the eucalyptus.
