It's Friday, TGIF! The leaves on some trees are already turning yellow and falling. I think it's in part due to the fact that it's been really dry lately. These are some leaves from my Golden Rain Tree that are turning. I am also sharing this image for today due to the lovely bubbly bokeh because Friday's Are Bokehlicious!
Our trees started turning quite early too.There are some almost bare already, some with individual branches coloured and some waiting for their normal time to turn.
ReplyDelete"They" say the trees turned early here because of the wetter conditions than normal in the summer which made for lots of mosquitos, the woods to be very overgrown this year and apparently stressed the trees such that their leaves are turning now.
I think some of the stress they say was caused by the rain coming so hard so fast that the ground didn't get a chance to absorb the water. But if that is the case why is everything is full and green.....?
Yes, that seems like a weird explanation. We are quite the opposite though trees are in the same state. Finally got some rain over the weekend but not near enough.
