"trees changing color"

Hahah, the "change of color" around here is usually green to brown in 24 hours.

We had a maple tree that I put in at our old home. It would be green, then we'd get a freak cold snap in Oct or Nov and in one day, I'd see the leaves go from green, maybe to yellow/orange, then brown, and on the ground, usually in 24-48 hours.

We do have one tree around here that will put on a little bit of a show. It's an invasive tree called the "Chinese Tallow" tree (sometimes called the "Popcorn tree"). It will actually do a valiant attempt at fall colors, but it's nothing like you guys see up north. Most of what we have down here is either evergreen or the leaves just turn brown and fall off.
