It's been a month since Pseudo broadcast some beautiful fall color. Not much was happening around here at the time, but now things are getting going. I presume Pseudo is already deep into hibernation. I thought it was time for another fall color assessment.

I'm always surprised by which tree will put on the best show each fall. Of course, one of the main factors is which days I'm able to be out observing them with both work schedules and weather considerations. This year it's my pistache which is looking mighty fine. I have 3 pistache trees, only one female and two males. The female is the one with the best color - don't know if it's just my female or if this is typical. The last picture shows a male (right) next to the female (left). My acer rubrum show was disappointing this year. Of course, still lots to come, as most of my Japanese maples and witch hazels haven't gotten very far yet. Who else has some fall beauties to show off?
