Fall is the 2nd best season in New England (after summer). It’s warmer than spring and the vegetation is lush. The trees look a little tired as they lose their chlorophyll, but at least their death throes are beautiful, especially oaks and some maples.
If fall leaves aren’t colorful enough for you and you’re tired, tired, tired of ubiquitous mums (snore), plant colchicum (Colchicaceae) to brighten your fall garden.
