It`s finally October, it`s finally cooling down, and we even got a little rain overnight and into this morning. I thought I heard one of the local news weather people say that we likely won`t have as colorful fall foliage as we might have had due to so little moisture coming into the fall. That`s a bummer for me because I really enjoy being in a tree deer hunting and enjoying all the great color Indiana typically has.
Any tree biologists here? What makes for the best color in the fall, and how would size up what we`ll see here soon as far as color?

I'm far from an expert, but the local weather people are saying due to the drought, it will be an earlier leaf drop and a lot of brown...

Doesn’t matter to me. I’ll always have to deal with the people coming into Nashville to look at the leaves. Town gets crazy.

Most of my trees have dropped or dropping now. Only oaks are holding on. Brown is the only color.

I always heard dry weather in the fall brings out the colors. A landscaper once told me to stop watering fall flowers and trees to get the best color if the temps are cool. Who knows?
