Nice.

We don't really get much in the way of fall colors here.

At our old home, we had a maple tree in the front yard. The Houston weather would be warm and sunny, then we'd get a crazy cold front that would hit Houston, the temp would go from 70s and 80s to the 30s and 40s. I've seen that maple tree go from green to yellow (for about 2 hours) to brown and nude in 24 hours.

We also have "popcorn" trees (Chinese Tallow) around here. They will actually do a little better on the color. But they are invasive and don't do well in high winds.

I don't think I've seen much color since I lived in Japan.
