Leaves turning colour

We'll soon be in that time of year. I found this interesting. From CNN September 16, 2023 Did you know that the vibrant hues leaves turn in the fall are their actual colors? It's true — leaves that change color are naturally those orange, red and yellow shades, but during half of the year, those hues are overwhelmed by green chlorophyll. Colder, cloudier months mean less chlorophyll, which means the trees and flora can finally show their true colors. It's kind of poetic, isn't it? A lot of people see the changing colors of the season as a prelude to the barrenness of winter, but really it's a special show all its own — one full of unexpected, unique life.
